to the University of British Columbia working with NASA and the Canadian Space Agency on the OSIRIS-Rex mission to the asteroid Bennu. She moved to the UK with an EU Marie Sklowdowska-Curie Fellowship hosted by the University of Bristol where she investigated the interior structure of asteroids

and Tacolneston began operating at the end of July 2012. Deployment at Tacolneston was delayed as planning permission was required to position the University of Bristol mobile lab (a custom built shipping container) at the site. Angus data has been collected since late 2005 and the University of Edinburgh have

Met Office Chief Meteorologist, Paul Gundersen, said: “Temperatures are rising further today with low 30 Celsius widely across England including places like Manchester, Sheffield, Bristol and Cambridge. The highest temperature is expected to be 34C in London and the south east of England

. This involved an analysis of the diurnal cycle in clouds and water vapour, primarily using observations from the Meteosat-8 satellite. As an undergraduate, Ruth studied mathematics at the University of Bristol.

Storm Darragh, 6 to 7 December 2024 Storm Darragh, the fourth named storm of the 2023/2024 storm season, brought very strong winds to western parts of England and Wales in early December. The Met Office issued a red warning for wind covering West Wales and both coasts of the Bristol Channel

. A new parameterization for shear-driven ocean mixing in a climate model was developed and is being used in a GFDL climate model. Laura has a PhD in Ocean Modelling from Liverpool University where she investigated the effects of topography on the ocean circulation. Prior to that she did an undergraduate degree in Mathematics at Cambridge University and a MSc in Industrial and Environmental Modelling at Bristol University mathematics department.  

and the University of Bristol. Doug obtained a BSc in Mechanical Engineering, and a PhD in computational fluid dynamics from Imperial College London. External recognition Lloyds' science of risk prize 2010, overall winner for research showing skilful multi-year predictions of Atlantic hurricane frequency. Hans Oeschger Medal 2022 for work on near-term climate prediction and the atmospheric response to sea ice.

of ice sheets to long-term climate change. This work is in collaboration with glaciologists at Bristol University. The next generation of ice sheet models includes a representation of the interaction of oceans with ice streams and ice shelves. The development and assessment of these model components

scientist of the Montserrat Volcano Observatory, managing the geodetic monitoring programme contributing risk advice throughout an active period of the eruption crisis. In 2012, he returned to the UK as a Senior Research Associate at the University of Bristol, where his research focussed around volcanology

: Indian monsoon Interactions between moist convection and large-scale circulation Development of model assessment software Before joining the Met Office, Alistair completed an MSc in Applied Mathematics at St Andrews University, followed by a PhD in fluid dynamics at the Department of Mathematics in the University of Bristol.
