Dr. Rogers is an employee of NOAA’s Hurricane Research Division (HRD) in Miami, FL. His main areas of research involve studying the role of convective- and vortex-scale processes in tropical cyclone (TC) structure and intensity change, using a combination of aircraft observations and numerical models. He is an active participant in HRD's annual hurricane field campaign, and he served as Director of the field campaign in 2005 and 2010. He has also served as Associate Editor for Monthly Weather Review and Weather and Forecasting. He has published research in Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, Monthly Weather Review, Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, and the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, among others.
