Linh Vu

Linh is a PhD student conducting research at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory under the guidance of Yutian Wu. Her work focuses on Arctic climate, sea ice, and polar amplification, utilizing Python to analyze large ensemble climate and reanalysis data.

Prior to her doctoral studies, Linh earned a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Washington, where she double-majored in Atmospheric Sciences and Earth & Space Sciences. Her academic background includes research on cyclones, sea ice, and ice cores in collaboration with Professors Cecilia Bitz and TJ Fudge, as well as Dr. Robin Clancy. Additionally, she gained experience in operational meteorology and exoplanetary climate modeling through internships at NASA and the National Weather Service.
