Research interests
Ruth uses a hierarchy of climate models and data to tackle problems in regional climate variability and change. By building up a basic understanding of climate phenomena with simpler, idealised models she aims to develop firmer foundations for our understanding of real-world climate. For example, areas she is currently exploring are:
-
Pathways by which warming of the Arctic may influence weather extremes (e.g. heatwaves, storms) in the midlatitudes
-
Sources of model bias in CMIP6 simulations of the East Asian Summer Monsoon
Biography
Dr Ruth Geen studied Physics at the University of Oxford, before moving to Imperial College London for her PhD in Atmospheric Physics, looking at the effects of water vapour on climate in an aquaplanet model. From 2016-2021 she worked as a Research Fellow in Mathematics at University of Exeter, researching questions in monsoon dynamics and Arctic influences on midlatitude climate. In 2022 she joined University of Birmingham as a lecturer in Atmospheric Sciences.
