Dr Dr. Gavin A. Schmidt is a climatologist and climate modeller at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies. He works on the variability of the ocean circulation and climate and how changes related to varying forcings relate to variations due to intrinsic (unforced) climate variability, using general circulation models. He has also worked on ways to reconcile paleo-data with models. The main difficulty is that the proxy data are records of multiple processes and hence, it is difficult to unambiguously ascribe a climatic cause to any particular recorded event. He has helped develope the GISS ocean and coupled GCMs to improve the representation of the present day climate while investigating their response to external forcing. The new GCM is called ModelE.
In november 2004 he was named as one of Scientific American's "Top 50 Scientists" .
