Greetings,
I have read the TIGHAR Forum for a number of years and have decided to join using the researcher category of membership. I am retired and live in Prescott, AZ. For about 30 years I worked at the Naval Research Laboratory, Marine Meteorology Division, Monterey, CA. This is a branch of the Naval Research Laboratory located in Washington, DC. I have a B.S. in physics from U.C. Berkeley and PhD in atmospheric physics from the University of Arizona. During my career I was involved with the study (and numerical modeling) of the marine atmospheric boundary layer and, to some extent, atmospheric effects on electromagnetic (ship radar) propagation. My principal academic interests these days are with general relativity and cosmology, and my main hobby is birding. I am very interested in the research of TIGHAR but have no expertise whatsoever in this field.
Steve Burk
