significant trend over the period of 1998-2014. In 2021, the earthshine team reported twenty years (1998-2017) of terrestrial albedo variations in which the variations were consistent with overlapping (2000-2017) CERES satellite data with nearly the same inter-annual variations. Unlike the period 1998-2014, the last three years of data, 2015-2017 showed a sharp drop in albedo (~0.5 W/m2) that alone could cause climatologically significant changes. This effect is also seen in the CERES data, and is primarily attributed to a reversal of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation yielding a precipitous warming of the Pacific coast seas off the Americas, somehow reducing the overhead cloud cover thereby sharply decreasing the albedo for the first time since the warming hiatus of this century began. Climate models do not replicate this surprise decrease and it is, thus, unclear how the climate system disposes of this extra energy. Theoretical Nuclear Physics His earliest work was in theoretical nuclear physics (1967-1982) in which he concentrated on the nature of the nucleon-nucleon interaction inside a nucleus. He also explained a number of experimentally measured dynamical phenomena of nuclei, like why 56Ni decays so slowly. It is the energy from this unexpected anomaly of a doubly magic nucleus decaying that cause Type I supernovae to shine. Mentoring Among 32 students and postdocs Goode supervised, nearly all have careers in various technological fields utilizing their education/training. Of these, 16 have faculty/national center tenure track/tenured positions. Senior among the latter group are Thomas Rimmele (DKIST Director, U.S. National Solar Observatory) and Prof. Enric Pallé (former Director of Research at Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias, Spain), as well as leaders of solar groups around the world including Prof. Peter Gallagher (Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies, Ireland), Prof. Jongchul Chae (Seoul National University, South Korea), Prof. Haisheng Ji (Purple Mountain Observatory, Nanjing, China), Prof. Carsten Denker (Leibniz-Institut for Astrophysics, Potsdam, Germany), & Prof. Wenda Cao (Director, BBSO). Aside: First NJIT undergrad senior thesis (hydrodynamic limits on the sun's buried magnetic field) Goode supervised was by Glenn Gaffney who became Director of Science and Technology at the CIA. Leadership In the mid-1990s, Goode founded the Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research (CSTR) at NJIT (originally called the Center for Solar Research until the addition of the terrestrial component in 2002). Goode grew the NJIT solar-terrestrial program from a single faculty member to seven tenured solar-terrestrial faculty with facilities in California (Big Bear Solar Observatory and the
