Overview

Judah Cohen is affiliated with MIT in the United States and conducts research primarily in Earth and Planetary Sciences and Environmental Science. Their work is focused on several interconnected fields and topics related to climate variability, atmospheric dynamics, and cryospheric studies.

The scientist has contributed extensively to the subfields of Atmospheric Science, Global and Planetary Change, Oceanography, Artificial Intelligence, and Management Science and Operations Research. Their research spans main topics including climate variability and models, Arctic and Antarctic ice dynamics, meteorological phenomena and simulations, climate change and permafrost, atmospheric and environmental gas dynamics, cryospheric studies and observations, and atmospheric ozone and climate.

Judah Cohen has published in several frequent venues, including Communications Earth & Environment, Journal of Geophysical Research Atmospheres, Nature Communications, Science Advances, and Geophysical Research Letters.

  • Linking Arctic variability and change with extreme winter weather in the United States (2021, Science)
  • How do intermittency and simultaneous processes obfuscate the Arctic influence on midlatitude winter extreme weather events? (2021, Environmental Research Letters)
  • Arctic Warming Revealed by Multiple CMIP6 Models: Evaluation of Historical Simulations and Quantification of Future Projection Uncertainties (2021, Journal of Climate)
  • No detectable trend in mid-latitude cold extremes during the recent period of Arctic amplification (2023, Communications Earth & Environment)
  • Summer atmospheric circulation over Greenland in response to Arctic amplification and diminished spring snow cover (2023, Nature Communications)

The scientist collaborates frequently with a consistent group of co-authors, including Laurie Agel, Mathew Barlow, Chaim I. Garfinkel, Ziyi Cai, and Qinglong You, each contributing to multiple joint publications.
