Profile

I completed my PhD from University of Bremen, Germany on "Dynamical Influence on stratospheric ozone and water vapour" in 2006.  Then I worked on the development of an alogorithm to retreive stratospheric water vapour using SCIAMACHY (SCanning Imaging Absorption SpectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY) limb measurements.

Since 2008, I have been working at the University of Leeds, on various aspects of model development and evalulation using various types of satellite data. Atmospheric chemistry models that I have been using are TOMCAT, UMSLIMCAT, UMUKCA and ECMWF-IFS.
