Michael Box recently retired as Associate Professor in Physics at the University of New South Wales, Australia. He has taught Atmospheric Science, and a number of advanced Physics courses. He has 100 publications, mostly in atmospheric science, with a particular focus on radiative transfer, remote sensing, and the radiative effects of aerosols. He is co-author of Physics of Radiation and Climate (CRC Press, 2016). He is a Fellow of the Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society, and a member of AGU. His former graduate students can be found in scientific establishments in Europe and Australia. He currently teaches Adult Education courses in Sydney.
