NJIT overseers to award NJIT physicist new medal and prize
Date:3/10/2008

roperties of the solar magnetic fields. His other areas of interest include working to place a lower limit on solar irradiance and to probe the solar interior. Such studies impact scientists understanding and ability to predict space weather.

In recent years, industry, government and scientists have begun placing increasing attention upon space weather to learn more about which solar magnetic storms can have deleterious effects on satellites, the terrestrial power grid and telecommunications.

Since 1998, Goode has focused on climate studies in which the Earths large-scale reflectance has been measured using earthshine. He and BBSO researchers have spent time modeling their earthshine data for the Earths reflectivity using satellite cloud cover and found appreciable decadal variation of reflectance due to cloud changes. BBSO is building a global network of earthshine telescopes to measure the Earths global reflectance and spectrum.

Herkert, of Hanover Township, has been a longtime friend of the university. The now retired former chairman and chief executive officer of Hatch Mott MacDonald Infrastructure and Environment, Herkert has long championed the advancement of the university, serving in many volunteer roles.

The NJIT Board of Overseers is a special resource for the university. An overseer is a critical link between academe and the business community, providing information on corporate and state priorities and assisting NJIT in meeting research and funding goals. The corporate perspective of the overseers helps to clarify the universitys research focus and indeed, may introduce entirely new research directions for consideration.
