Introduction and ongoing research


This website I built myself using Django. That was fun, and still functions well. However, after using it for 5 years, I've found the barrier to post short-format science content is too high. I am currently preparing a re-design using something based on my Obsidian notes. I will not post new content for the time-being.


On 27 September 2024, I defended my PhD thesis "Sunlight variations under broken clouds". That project started in March 2020, at the Meteorology and Air Quality (MAQ) group at Wageningen University. It was part of the 'Shedding Light On Cloud Shadows' SLOCS project, run by my promoter Chiel van Heerwaarden.

You can find the manuscript here: https://research.wur.nl/en/publications/sunlight-variations-under-broken-clouds

I am now starting a Postdoc position in the Climate Dynamics group at the University of Vienna: https://klimadynamik.univie.ac.at/ - I'm working on clouds, radiation, and deep convection.
