2016 DeSouza Award

Daryl Herzmann, Iowa State University

The Russell L. DeSouza Award honors “individuals whose energy, expertise, and active involvement enable the Unidata Program to better serve the geosciences.”

Daryl's stewardship of the Iowa Environmenal Mesonet and his efforts to make data archives available to scientists across the Unidata community led to his selection as the DeSouza award winner in 2016. Daryl has also been a champion of new technologies like Python and a tireless campaigner for the improvement of existing tools and workflows. 

A video recording of the award presentation and Daryl's seminar is linked below and is available on the NSF Unidata YouTube Channel.
