She received the award for her outstanding work in the NASA Earth eXchange Global Daily Downscaled Projections CMIP6 project. This project derived high-resolution, daily climate projections from the global model data of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) through statistical downscaling. The archive created by NASA Earth eXchange (NEX) represents a significant contribution to international climate research.

Bridget Thrasher has been part of the DKRZ team since February 2025. As a Data Steward in the Data Management department, she supports the preparation of the German contribution to CMIP7 as part of the CAP7 project. As a long-time user of the CMIP datasets, she is particularly looking forward to contributing to CMIP7 from a new perspective and improving the products and user experience for the next generation of researchers.

The entire DKRZ team warmly congratulates Bridget on this special award. We are proud to have such a dedicated and outstanding colleague on our team!
