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.

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 Laura Burgin

research, Laura co-supervises a PhD student, Marcel Meyer, in the Department of Plant Sciences  at Cambridge University who is researching the spread of wheat rust diseases in East Africa.  Career background From October 2006 to April 2016 Laura worked as part of the Atmospheric Dispersion and Air Quality

Dispersion processes and parameterizations

. To develop and improve NAME. Current projects MPI parallelisation of NAME. Improvements to the representation of effects of urban environments on dispersing plumes within NAME. Modelling of volcanic umbrella clouds within NAME. Ongoing validation of NAME against tracer experiments. Scientific collaboration and developments with a number of UK universities (e.g. Reading, Imperial College, Cambridge). Research on concentration fluctuations and buoyancy-driven flows.

this and all the weather details in the week ahead forecast 👇 pic.twitter.com/3q7ovcxAsq — Met Office (@metoffice) August 12, 2024 Monday provisionally saw the highest temperature of the year so far, with 34.8°C reached in Cambridge. This is the highest temperature recorded in the UK since 13 August 2022

Chris Jones

in the EU H2020 project, CRESCENDO, leading activity to build and evaluate European climate models to ensure they as closely as possible simulate observed behaviour of the Earth system. Career background BA (Physics and Theoretical Physics), University of Cambridge, 1993 MSc (Weather and Climate Modelling

Dr Nigel Wood

at Queens' College, Cambridge University. He was fortunate enough to then undertake a PhD, supervised jointly by Dr Paul Mason of the Met Office and Dr Alan Ibbetson of Reading University. The topic of his PhD was turbulent flow over three-dimensional hills, and the numerical model he developed

Dr Tom Dunstan

Background Tom has been a member of the The Atmospheric Boundary Layer group within Atmospheric Processes and Parametrizations in 2012. In 2019 he moved to the Orography group. Before joining the Met Office Tom completed a PhD at Cranfield University on turbulent combustion modelling using direct numerical simulation, and continued working in this field for four years as a Research Associate (postdoc) at Cambridge University Engineering Department.

Atmospheric dispersion research and response

and use of probabilistic dispersion forecasts. This involves quantifying the source, meteorological and impact uncertainties. Scientific collaboration and developments with a number of agencies (e.g. Public Health England) and UK universities (e.g., Reading, Bristol, Leeds and Cambridge). We are partners in the EUROVOLC project which aims to promote an integrated and harmonized European volcanological community.

Dr Helene Hewitt

cruise as part of the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) and was a summer fellow at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. Helene obtained a first class degree in Mathematics from Cambridge University (Fitzwilliam College). External Recognition Helene is currently a member of the NEMO developers committee and the CLIVAR Ocean Model Development Panel (OMDP) and co-chaired this group from 2007 to 2008.
