Principal Scientist -- Atmosphere and Climate, National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research

I am an atmospheric and climate scientist with a particular interest in the linkages between atmospheric composition and climate change. I have participated in three Ozone Assessments and the 6th Assessment Report of IPCC, which appeared in August 2021. I am leading two climate modelling programmes for the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) and for the Deep South National Science Challenge.
