Numerical Prediction Development Center, Japan Meteorological Agency
Tsuyoshi Koshiro earned an M.S. in March 2001 at Hokkaido University for his work on aerosol–cloud interactions using satellite observations and climate model simulations. After graduation, he worked for Fujitsu FIP Corporation as a computer systems engineer and was engaged in supporting researchers with investigations in atmospheric sciences, including the development of satellite radar/lidar simulators and retrieval systems for various remote sensing observations, until March 2004. Then he entered Kyoto University as a Ph.D. student and investigated spatial and temporal variations in low stratiform clouds and their mechanisms using satellite and ship-based observations. After withdrawal from the doctoral program with the completion of course requirements in September 2009, he worked for the Meteorological Research Institute on climate model development related to cloud/radiation/aerosol processes, evaluation of the simulated clouds and cloud–climate feedback processes, and observational data analysis for low stratiform clouds and their role in climate. He received a Ph.D. from the Division of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Graduate School of Science at Kyoto University, in July 2018. He has now moved to the Numerical Prediction Development Center, Japan Meteorological Agency.
