of Private Secretary to the Chief Scientist, working in support of Prof. Dame Julia Slingo OBE FRS. Huw completed a PhD at the University of Leeds, investigating the dynamics of boundary layer flows over steep terrain. As part of his PhD work, Huw took part in a field campaign measuring wind and turbulence over a steep ridge in the Swiss Alps. As an undergraduate, Huw studied Physics with Meteorology at the University of Edinburgh.

in the UK:  Communication of uncertainty This project, led by the University of Leeds, reviewed empirical studies from the cognitive and psychological sciences exploring non-experts’ responses to uncertain climate information. We produced two infographics to illustrate the findings from this project.  UK
