Tsan Mo
received his PH.D. in physics from the University of Maryland in 1969.
He worked in the fields of nuclear physics, atmospheric sciences, and
microwave remote sensing. He joined the NOAA/NESDIS/ORA Satellite
Research Laboratory (now Satellite Meteorology and Climatology Division)
in 1992 to pioneer the calibration/validation of microwave sensors,
including Microwave Sounding Unit, Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A
and -B, and Microwave Humidity Sounders. He has been awarded one
Department of Commerce Silver Medal and four NOAA Bronze Medals. He also
received two National Aeronautics and Space Administration Group
Achievement Awards for the NOAA-J and NOAA-K teams, respectively.
