Hello! I'm Julie Inglis, a fifth year PhD candidate in Planetary Sciences at Caltech. 

I work on the characterization of giant planet and substellar atmospheres with Heather Knutson. Other research topics I am interested in are the properties of clouds in the atmospheres of giant planets and how this affects their spectra. I also model the formation of their satellites with Konstantin Batygin.

My work focuses on understanding the present -day atmospheres of giant planets and how they are connected to their formation. The atmospheres of giant planets are the product of complicated formation processes and subsequent evolution. I use a mixture of high-resolution observations from ground-based facilities like Keck, as well as low-resolution observations from JWST, to study the chemistry and physical properties of these atmospheres to try and disentangle information about their origins.
