. 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.  

at the Met Office, as well as the partner organisations, via Universities of Cambridge, Leeds and Oxford. This involves aiding the developers in testing and debugging their components of UKCA, preparing the new components for incorporation into the Unified Model and maintaining as well as documenting them

) model. Currently, tropospheric and stratospheric chemistry are treated separately, although our aim is to combine these into a 'whole-atmosphere' chemistry and dynamical model, in collaboration with Cambridge University. There are a variety of tropospheric chemistry schemes within '. The simplest
