Biography
I am an expert in modelling atmospheric chemistry and climate. In particular, I am interested in the linkages between ozone depletion and climate change. I am co-leading a research project investigating the causes of a misrepresentation of clouds in the Southern-Ocean region. I have helped develop a chemistry-climate model. I am a Lead Author of the 6th Assessment Report of IPCC and maintain an interest in the big questions around climate modelling.Last updated: 02 Aug 2023
