Profile

I am an Associate Professor of Atmospheric Science at the University of Leeds and an Expert Scientist in Climate Science at the Met Office Hadley Centre. I hold a joint Met Office – Leeds position as part of the Met Office Academic Partnership (MOAP). I study large-scale multi-decadal climate change processes, including heat uptake, radiative forcing and climate feedbacks on a regional to global-scale. I use observations, theory and climate modelling of these processes to understand the causes and mechniams of climate change and to make better informed climate projections.

Research interests

Causes, mechanisms and processes of climate change
Climate sensitivity
Climate feedbacks
Pattern effects
Radiative forcing
Earth’s energy balance
