【报告人简介】
Prof. Thomas Spengler
(University of Bergen)
Thomas Spengler focuses on the combination of theory, observations, and modelling, specialized on scales ranging from meso, synoptic, to large-scale flow and participated and coordinated several field campaigns. He did his PhD at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, followed by a postdoc at Princeton University, USA, before accepting his professorship at the University of Bergen, Norway. Since 2015, he is the director of the Norwegian Research School on Changing Climates in the Coupled Earth System (CHESS). Currently, he is leading research projects focusing on atmosphere-ocean-ice interactions in higher latitudes as well as air-sea interactions and cyclone development in the midlatitude storm tracks. In 2012, he was elected as a member of the International Commission for Dynamic Meteorology (ICDM) and was elected President of ICDM in 2019, re-elected in 2023. From 2015-2019, he was the elected as Chair of the Atmospheric Working Group of the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC), and a member from 2013-2021. Since 2022, he is the elected Leader of the Norwegian Geophysical Society. He was awarded the prize for best lecturer of the academic year 2012/2013 at the Faculty for Mathematics and Natural Sciences at the University of Bergen and nominated for the IAMAS early career scientist medal in 2013.
Prof. Noel Sebastian Keenlyside
(University of Bergen)
Dr. Noel Keenlyside is a professor in tropical meteorology at the university of Bergen. He is internationally recognized for his work in climate dynamics, modelling and prediction. He currently heads the Bjerknes Climate Prediction Unit and led the development of the Norwegian Climate Prediction Model. His interests extend to climate services and to the development of integrated Earth-Ecosystem Models. Keenlyside has coordinated large international and multi-disciplinary EU and Nordic projects. This includes the TRIATLAS project (https://triatlas.w.uib.no) where he led the development of the first Earth-System/Marine Ecosystem model predictions. He has received prestigious ERC Consolidator and the DFG Emmy Noether grants. He has served and chaired several WCRP CLIVAR panels, including the Atlantic Region Panel and the Climate Dynamics Panel, and most recently the Tropical Basin Interaction Research Focus. He serves on editorial boards for Advances in Atmospheric Science, NPJ Climate and Atmospheric Sciences, and SPJ Ocean Atmosphere Land Research journals.
Prof. Noboru Nakamura
(University of Chicago)
Dr. Noboru Nakamura is a Professor in the Department of the Geophysical Sciences at the University of Chicago. His research interest centers around the dynamics and transport of large-scale circulation in the Earth's extratropical atmosphere. Dr. Nakamura strives to advance fundamental understanding of weather and climate variability by meshing theories of fluid dynamics and meteorological data. He holds a Certified Consulting Meteorologist designation from the American Meteorological Society.
Prof. Richard Grotjahn
(University of California, Davis)
Dr. Richard Grotjahn is an Emeritus Professor in the Department of Land, Air, and Water Resources of the University of California, Davis, USA. His half century of research includes numerical methods, forecasting, theoretical dynamics, and synoptic meteorology. His recent research combines observational, statistical, and dynamical tools to study extreme events having large scale signatures. This work is grounded by the realities of operating his farm. He is also currently rewriting his book on the General Circulation. He is an editor of several journals and has been on various commissions, boards, and committees. He is past President of the International Commission on Dynamical Meteorology (ICDM) a sponsor of next week` s workshop. He has exhibited his art and is a marathon runner.
Prof. Rachel White
(University of British Columbia)
Dr. Rachel White is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of British Columbia, Canada. Her work focuses on large-scale climate dynamics and the simulation of atmospheric dynamics in climate models. She is interested in answering questions from the theoretical: how would stationary waves be different if the Earth rotated in the opposite direction? to more applied: can we use the connections between large-scale atmospheric dynamics and extreme weather events to improve sub seasonal forecasts of extremes? Her group uses climate models to explore how forcing affects our climate, whether that forcing is anthropogenic greenhouse gases, mountain uplift, the presence of ice sheets, or different land configurations in paleoclimates. Rachel obtained her PhD in Atmospheric Physics at Imperial College London, before completing post-doc positions at the University of Washington and the Barcelona Supercomputing Center. She serves as an Associate Editor for the Journal of Atmospheric Sciences, and is a lead author for two chapters for the latest Canada` s Changing Climate Report (2025).
