The professional web-site of Frank R. Freedman, PhD
I am a meteorologist and environmental scientist. My main area of specialty is fluid turbulence, particularly as it relates to weather prediction and air pollution dispersion. I have studied turbulence, weather prediction, and air pollution dispersion for close to 20 years. My work falls under three main categories: instruction, research and consulting.
I have B.S. and M.S. degrees in Meteorology from San Jose State University, and a PhD in Environmental Engineering from Stanford University. I did post-doctoral work at the National Center for Environmental Prediction, which is the national laboratory tasked with developing the weather forecast models used in this United States. Since then, I have done a variety of consulting work and have taught courses in air pollution and meteorological modeling at San Jose State University.

Einstein purportedly said that a scientific theory should be as simple as possible, but no simpler. I strive to adhere to this principle as much as possible in my work. The name of this web-site was chosen to reflect this.
