The benefits of mentoring for students, Early Career Scientists (ECS) and those looking to progress in their careers are numerous. In fact, in some studies, mentoring was found to be the most important factor for completing a degree in the science, technology, maths and engineering (STEM) fields (Woolston, 2019).

He got his PhD from the University of Copenhagen where he, in collaboration with the Danish Meteorological Institute, derived and implemented a new dynamics module for HIRLAM that exactly conserved mass of air and tracers. He is particularly interested in numerical methods for dynamical cores, that is (roughly speaking), algorithms that approximate the solution to the adiabatic frictionless equations of motion for the atmosphere on resolved scales.
