Together with CHAMP (Challenging Minisatellite Payload) data he employed it in many innovative studies, e.g. checking the validity of the IRI (International Reference Ionosphere) model shedding light on the causes for the Weddell Sea ionisation anomaly or for determining the tidal signature in the topside ionosphere. As recognition for his outstanding studies he was awarded Research Fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation.

European Geophysical Society Hans Oeschger Medal (since 2001) This medal has been established by the Interdisciplinary Working Group (IWG) on Palaeoclimatology (PC) in recognition of the scientific achievement of Hans Oeschger . It is reserved for scientists for their outstanding achievements in ice research and/or short term climatic changes (past, present, future). Hans Oeschger Medallists 2002 P.D. Jones 2003 S. Johnsen
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster (OSP) Awards / 2015 / Inge Juszak
She is interested in how Arctic tundra vegetation affects local climate and permafrost thaw. Currently, she uses field measurements in north-east Siberia and radiative transfer modelling to compare the radiation budget of Arctic dwarf shrubs and sedges .
Home / Media Library / Scientists checking the mesocosms off the coast of Svalbard
Researchers check the ‘mesocosms’, eight-metre long floatation frames carrying plastic bags with a capacity of 50 cubic metres, deployed for a five-week long field study on ocean acidification conducted in the Kongsfjord off the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard. The results are published in the EGU open access journal "Biogeosciences":http://www.biogeosciences.net. (This image is free to use but attribution is required.)

In particular he has studied the effects of the topographic data resolution on a two-dimensional model accuracy.
Home / Awards & medals / Katia and Maurice Krafft Award / 2021 / Annie Ockelford
Ockelford has delivered outreach activities in various roles, at university level and through learned societies, and she has a truly impressive record of developing innovative outreach schemas and for engaging pupils especially from non-traditional backgrounds. Ockelford is a most worthy recipient of the 2021 Katia and Maurice Krafft Award.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster and PICO (OSPP) Awards / 2019 / Bernat Jiménez-Esteve
He pursued a Bachelor degree in Physics and a Master degree in Meteorology at the University of Barcelona. His PhD research focuses on the El Niño Southern Oscillation’s (ENSO) influence on extratropical climate. He uses observational and model data to understand the physical mechanisms that lead to such remote influences, which can improve predictability at seasonal timescales.

Her research focuses on integrating surface expressions of plate tectonics with patterns of mantle flow and deformation at depth through innovative analyses of seismic anisotropy.
Home / Education / Planet Press / Articles / Is reflecting sunlight a solution for climate change?
5 December 2013 One of the important aspects of the warming of our planet is how the rising temperatures will impact the climate, including how much and when it rains. Humans are producing high quantities of carbon dioxide (from cars and industry), together with other greenhouse gases like methane, causing a ‘blanket’ effect in the Earth’s atmosphere, trapping the heat from the Sun and heating up our planet.
