Research and teaching:
I founded and have led the Energy-Meteorology group since 2012. Our activities can be found on the Energy Meteorology research group website. More generally, I work on a wide range of problems in the area of climate impacts and climate services. In 2019 I initiated, co-wrote and lead-convened the new MSc-level module Climate Services and Climate Impact Modelling. A 6-week version of this course is offered to external students (online course) and a 2-week short-form is available via FutureLearn.
My research interests include:
- Impacts of weather and climate on complex human and environmental systems, especially energy
- Weather and climate risk
- Subseasonal to seasonal forecasting
- Large-scale atmospheric dynamics and extratropical storm tracks
Current research projects:
- Forecast value in complex decision-making systems (SCENARIO DTP)
- Climate change and energy system reliability (PhD student)
- Decadal climate forecasting for the energy sector (SCENARIO DTP)
- Modelling the frequency of extreme event forecasts for the management of funds for humanitarian action (SCENARIO DTP)
