Research includes the development of  1D, 2D, and 3D models to understand the radiative, advective and chemical processes in exoplanet and brown dwarf atmospheres. We have several ongoing research projects in atmospheric modeling related to the interpretation of ground- and space-based data from Palomar, Spitzer and HST and eventually JWST. These projects are also precursor studies to future telescopes planned for the 2020s including JWST, the Roman Space Telescope and ARIEL/CASE.     Research benefits from collaborations at JPL, Caltech, and around the world, and in particular the interactive and interdisciplinary environment enabled by JPL‘s Exoplanetary Science Initiative (ESI). ESI seeks to strengthen connections between astrophysics, planetary science and earth science in study of exoplanets, towards ultimately addressing the question of habitability in the universe. More information on the ESI can be found at https://exoplanetary.jpl.nasa.gov/ .
