Dr. Ned Nikolov obtained his Ph.D. Degree in ecosystem modeling from Colorado State University in 1997. He then spent 3 years as a post-doctorate researcher at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, TN. Since 2001, he has been working as a physical scientist in one capacity or another for a project funded by the US Forest Service focused on developing of fire-weather applications based on historical climatological data and producing operational fire-weather forecasts to assist the wildfire- and smoke management in the USA. He has been conducting climate research since 2011.
