With a background in both social and climate science Rebecca’s research interests lie in multidisciplinary approaches - primarily pulling through climate science alongside socio-economic analysis to better understand climate risk. She also has a keen interest in improving

lies to the north of the jet stream, while warmer tropical air lies to the south. This temperature contrast creates a pressure gradient, which drives the high-altitude winds. The Earth’s rotation also plays a role. The Coriolis effect causes moving air to deflect to the right in the northern
