PhD in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2023; M.S. Mechanical Engineering 2019, University of Colorado Boulder. Miguel is interested in the technological and resource assessment aspects of renewable energies, primarily from wind energy. He has assessed how wind veer affects wind turbine power production in the CWEX-13 dataset (Sanchez Gomez and Lundquist 2020a, 2020b), used WRF-LES to assess upwind blockage effects from wind farms (Sanchez Gomez et al. 2023) and whether or not nacelle-mounted lidars can detect blockage (Sanchez Gomez et al. 2022, JRSE) as well as to understand hurricane boundary layers and how they may affect wind turbines (Sanchez Gomez et al. 2023, GRL). He is now a postdoctoral researcher at NREL focusing on on hurricane boundary layer simulation and wind farm wake studies. In his free time, he enjoys mountain biking and backpacking.
