Christiano Garnett Marques Brum

Christiano Brum holds a degree in Industrial Engineering from the Center for Technology Development and Human Resources, as well as master's and doctoral degrees in Space Geophysics from the National Institute for Space Research (INPE). Additionally, he has completed postdoctoral studies at INPE, Utah State University, and Cornell University at the Arecibo Observatory. His interests are ggeneral atmospheric (aeronomy) and space (space geophysics) research by using active and passive radio and optical instrumentation based on extensive data bank, which that includes the following topics but not limited to: 1) Development of numerical tools for nowcasting and forecasting of the upper atmosphere based on the impacts of geomagnetic and solar storms on the thermosphere, low-to-high latitudes; 2) Analysis of the long-term trends of geophysical and atmospheric parameters and their impacts on the Earth's climate; 3) Evaluation and parametrization of the alternative hypothesis for the O-O+ cross-section adjustment at altitudes of the peak of electron density of the ionosphere (F-region); 4) Evaluation of the trans-hemispheric exchange of mass of the convection cells for the American Sector; 5) Coupling of the troposphere to the thermosphere wind field through gravity waves and severe weather (hurricanes), and; 6) Mesosphere-Lower Thermosphere (MLT) gravity wave coupling.
