Research
Prof. Adegoke investigates the role of the land
surface as drivers of weather and climate in his research using satellite
remote sensing, climate diagnostic tools and regional climate models. Two
interconnected issues continue to engage his attention: the direct
influence of surface representation in regional atmospheric models using
high resolution satellite products; and the feedbacks and interactions
between the land surface and various physical components that are triggered
by the land surface representation in the models. Since joining the faculty
of the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) in September 2002, he has
developed additional interests in climate-societal issues, especially
cross-scale linkages and feedbacks between processes that impact heat
stress and air quality in changing urban areas. Dr. Adegoke maintains very strong interest in Geoscience Education
and is a passionate advocate for programs geared towards increasing
minority representation in the sciences. He directs the Minority Outreach
Science Enrichment Project (MOSEP) and the GLOBE program (www.globe.gov) at UMKC.
