Brief Bio: Kris Karnauskas is a Fellow of the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences () and an Associate Professor in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences () at the , with secondary faculty appointments in the and the . Prior to joining the CU Boulder faculty, Kris spent six years on the faculty of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution () and the (also teaching at ) followed by sabbatical at the Institut Pierre Simon Laplace () in Paris, France through a . Kris completed his B.S. at the and Ph.D. at the , both in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship in at the of . Kris currently serves as Editor for AGU's and Section Editor for , and recently served on the Scientific Steering Committee (SSC) of the U.S. Climate Variability and Predictability Program (). Kris was the recipient of the from the American Geophysical Union () "for important contributions to better understanding the tropical oceans and atmosphere."聽During the spring of 2022, Kris was on sabbatical at . In 2023, Kris became a founding co-chair of the Joint US CLIVAR/NIH Working Group on Climate &聽Health.

Mission Statement: The Oceans and Climate Lab at CU Boulder explores the dynamics of the coupled Earth system toward useful predictions of impacts ranging from marine ecosystems to human health. Through teaching, Professor Karnauskas aims to equip students with the tools to investigate, communicate and act intelligently on matters of global change.

Teaching at CU Boulder: Professor Karnauskas enjoys teaching the full spectrum of students at CU Boulder about the oceans and climate, from freshman non-science majors to doctoral candidates. Kris typically teaches ATOC 4730/5730: Physical Oceanography and Climate in the fall, which is one of the 'fundamentals' courses in the ATOC Major and is crosslisted for graduate students from other fields. In the spring, Kris typically teaches ATOC 1060: Our Changing Environment (a.k.a. "climate science 101") or ATOC 4215: Descriptive Physical Oceanography (a new course blending lectures and projects). Professor Karnauskas also occasionally offers ATOC/GEOL 3070: Introduction to Oceanography in the summer. Finally, a one-credit graduate seminar is offered each semester focused generally on climate dynamics (ATOC 6020), which is open to graduate students but interested undergrads and postdocs are also welcome to participate.

Personal Interests: Kris is an avid road biker, trail runner, and super proud father of two. Frequently sighted coaching little league baseball.
