Dr. Joseph A. Shaw

I joined the faculty at Montana State University in 2001 after spending 12 years at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) research labs in Boulder, Colorado. I enjoy developing optical remote sensing systems and applying them to understanding the natural world. Photographing and understanding natural optical phenomena is another of my passions (see examples in my book, Optics in the Air). I am a Fellow of SPIE and Optica.
