Congratulations to Lynker’s Lead Physical Scientist, Dr. Bin Liu, for receiving NOAA’s Team Member of the Month Award! Dr. Bin Liu serves as a Hurricane Modeling Task Lead in College Park, MD, where he has played a critical role in developing and finalizing the operational configurations of the newest generation of NOAA’s Hurricane Analysis and Forecast System […]
Lynker is excited to win the Continuous Operational Real-Time Monitoring System (CORMS) contract in support of the Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS). We will provide technical and scientific support in monitoring, reviewing, and analyzing the suite of oceanographic and meteorological data that CO-OPS collects as well as detecting, diagnosing, and troubleshooting any […]
Dr. Jim McCord and supporting Lynker staff will provide consulting services related to mine water management, hydrology, hydrogeology, hydrologic modeling and impact analysis for the Pine Point Project’s Feasibility Study and the Environmental Assessment. Situated in Canada’s Northwest Territories, with nearly 60 lead-zinc deposits stretching over a 20 km x 80 km area and characterized as complex paleokarst hydrogeology. Water management presents […]
Peter La Follette, Fred Ogden, and Ahmad Jan authored an innovative research paper that was published in the AGU journal “Water Resources Research” called Layered Green and Ampt Infiltration with Redistribution. Simulating the fraction of precipitation that infiltrates into soil often presents a substantial challenge to hydrologic modelers; results that are both accurate and computationally inexpensive […]

Lynker’s Hurricane Modeler, Maria F. Aristizabal Vargas, Ph.D., has been recognized as one of the seven incredible women advancing hurricane research and forecasting. Working at NOAA’s Environmental Modeling Center, Maria develops coupled forecast models to better represent how the ocean drives hurricanes, including their track and intensity. These models are critical for forecasting storms as they estimate […]
Lynker staff Rachel Bash and Mike Johnson, PhD won an Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP) Lab Award to tackle the lack of standard methods to find and access Earth system data related to water, wildfire, and the environment. They are building an open-source project that federates thousands of data sources in a common catalog and will […]
Lynker attends Capitol Hill Ocean Week in DC! We were a Supporter Sponsor at the Oceans Award Gala, and our team attended the NOAA Sustainable Seafood Celebration. We enjoyed connecting with colleagues and friends. Learn more about CHOW2023 at: Capitol Hill Ocean Week 2023
Lynker’s Program Director, Gyami Shrestha, presented at the first Sea Grant Blue Carbon Law Symposium held at the University of Georgia. She was invited to share her climate change policy perspectives and spoke of innovations and opportunities for improved measurements, verification, and governance in this sector. This event brought together a host of experts from legal […]
Kudos to Lynker’s GIS Team Lead – Land Cover Analyst, John McCombs, for being invited as one of the impressive leaders within the geospatial industry to serve on the Advisory Board for Geo Week 2024. The experts that make up the Board have been tapped to help craft critical programming for Geo Week, the premier event […]
