Biography
David Etheridge is a principal research scientist with the Climate Science Centre, CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere. His research involves the long term changes in greenhouse gases and ozone-depleting compounds. It has been used in all five IPCC Assessment Reports on The Science of Climate Change, all six World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) Scientific Assessments of Ozone Depletion and all three CSIRO/BoM State of the Climate reports, and he is a contributing author of these reports. He has led 8 field programs on the polar ice sheets, researching atmospheric composition change, climate change, and ice sheet dynamics. He is also investigating the possible impact on the atmosphere of new energy technologies, such as coal seam gas and geological storage of CO2.
