She joined the Berkeley faculty in 1998 as the Founding Director of the Berkeley Center for Atmospheric Sciences. She is the subject of the biography "Forecast Earth," part of the Women’s Adventures in Science series for middle-school-aged readers, launched by the National Academy of Sciences.

Since 1912, the Academic Senate has selected faculty members who are exceptionally distinguished for their scholarly research to serve as the Faculty Research Lecturers. These public events provide a unique opportunity for the campus community to hear from the very people who are transforming knowledge at Berkeley and in our world.
