Duncan Fairlie's homepage


Hello, and welcome to my homepage. I'm an exiled Scot living and working in the Hampton Roads region of southeast Virginia.

I live in Williamsburg, Virginia, and work as a research scientist in the Sciences Directorate at the NASA Langley Research Center. I am also attached to Daniel Jacob's research group at Harvard University, where I am working towards my PhD in Geophysics. You can find a description of my research projects here

For fun, I play soccer, enjoy backpacking, camping, canoeing and climbing mountains when I get the chance. I am also an ACA sea kayaking instructor.  Then, of course, there's my two boys and my two girls.
