Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student and PhD candidate Presentation (OSPP) Awards / 2023 / William Jones
His research focuses on the lifecycle and processes of deep convective clouds, and in particular involves the use of storm tracking algorithms with geostationary satellite imagery to better understand deep convection across a wide range of scales. He is also a lead developer of the tobac open-source cloud tracking software.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster and PICO (OSPP) Awards / 2019 / Nicholas Leach
His research concerns the representation of internal variability in models used for the attribution of climate change, with a focus on heatwaves. The work presented at EGU 2019 is part of research regarding simple climate models and carbon budgets that he carried out during his undergraduate masters in physics – collaborating with the Environmental Change Institute at the University of Oxford – and still spends a limited time on.

Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster (OSP) Awards / 2013 / Philipp Kempf
His PhD project focuses on paleo-tsunami deposits within coastal lakes along the megathrust earthquake-prone south-central Chilean coast. In his poster at EGU2013 he presented preliminary results from a survey on the island of Chiloé in which he integrated sidescan sonar data, sub-bottom profiles and various sediment core analyses, e.g. x-radiography and magnetic susceptibility.
