The topography of the northern half of the area is characterised by generally west to east sloping land, crossed by a number of eastwardsdraining rivers including the Tyne, Wear and Tees. Further south, the River Ouse crosses the Vale of York

Our advanced trajectory prediction technology – the same system that calculates cost-efficient routes through complex weather systems for aviation industry partners – is being put

The Artistic Lens by Paul Armstrong Can you tell us a bit about you and what you do? I’m James Hines. I'm a landscape photographer based near the North York Moors in the UK. I’m really interested in how the weather affects the mood of a photograph, and I'm even known as the “Mood Chasing
Chris has worked at the Met Office since 1997. Before joining Dynamics Research in 2008, Chris worked on cloud microphysics modelling in APP. Between 2000 and 2002 he took a career break from the Met Office to work in the ALADIN consortium on the development of a non hydrostatic NWP model. Chris has a bachelor's degree in theoretical physics from the University of York, and has a PhD in numerical analysis awarded by the University of Reading.
completed an MPhys at the University of Oxford, a PhD in Biological Physics at the University of York, and worked as a postdoctoral researcher in Biophysics at the University of Oxford. Helen's publications from this time are in the area of single-molecule super-resolution microscopy, as applied to various biological questions.
by the team. She also contributes to the development and maintenance of the global coupled NWP suite, and the land surface data assimilation system (SURF). Career background Rhiannon completed a BSc in Mathematics with a year in Europe at the University of York in 2011 and followed this with an MSc
impacts of air quality and atmospheric pollution modelling. Career background Paul graduated from York University in Physics. He joined the UK Atomic Energy Authority at Harwell to work on radiation effects in materials and completed a PhD at Oxford University on point defect production in solids
. Career background Samantha joined the Met Office as a research scientist in 1999. Previously Samantha obtained a PhD in atmospheric physics at UMIST in 1993, followed by a two year post-doctoral position. Her work at UMIST focused on thermodynamics and turbulence in cumulus and cirrus clouds. Subsequently she spent three years at NASA GISS in New York, where she continued to work on turbulence and horizontal inhomogeneity in cirrus clouds.
