Michael Sanderson

, Michael was a post-doctoral researcher at Cambridge University, where he initially studied global methane emissions and sinks, and then helped develop a lightweight ozone monitor based on a gas sensitive resistor. He completed a PhD in Atmospheric Chemistry at the University of York, where he also

James Hocking

(now Satellite and Surface Assimilation) team in 2007 after obtaining an MSc in Remote Sensing and Image Processing from Edinburgh University. Initially James worked on developing and improving algorithms to identify cloud-contaminated pixels in imagery from the MSG satellites. He has been working on the RTTOV model since 2010. As an undergraduate, James studied Maths at Cambridge University.    

Dr Tim Johns

of the Maths Tripos at the University of Cambridge in 1980, specialising in astrophysics and relativity theory, having previously graduated in Mathematics from the University of Southampton in 1979. External recognition Tim was jointly awarded the Norbert Gerbier-MUMM International Award by the two

David Sexton

Centre in August 1993, after studying Maths at Cambridge University. David spent the first nine years working on detection and attribution of anthropogenic climate change. This period culminated in a PhD in 2001 on experimental design and statistical modelling of climate model experiments, done

Dr Chris Harris

and subsequently the Copernicus Marine Service. He took up his current post in the newly created Coupled Data Assimilation team in 2018. Prior to joining the Met Office, Chris completed a PhD in theoretical particle physics at the Department of Physics in the University of Cambridge, where he had also

Dr Fiona O'Connor

to joining the Met Office Hadley Centre, she worked on tropospheric chemistry modelling as a post-doctoral research associate at Cambridge University. Before that, she did a PhD at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth using observations and modelling to study stratospheric dynamics. Fiona also has a first class honours degree in Experimental Physics and an MSc in Environmental Chemistry from the National University of Ireland, Galway and Cork, respectively.
