Biography
Megan Gialluca is an expert in coupled photochemical-climate modeling optimized for parallelization on high performance computing resources. She also models the balance of outgassing and escape processes in terrestrial planet atmospheres to determine equilibrium surface pressures. Most frequently, Gialluca applies her work to interpreting observations of the 7 planet TRAPPIST-1 system. Gialluca also holds expertise in operating radiative transfer algorithms to model planetary spectra.
