Amplified variability exacerbates risks of extreme North Atlantic Oscillation
Extreme states of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) in summer can lead to severe weather events such as heatwaves and floods in Europe. Using large ensembles of simulations and reanalysis data, our study shows that global warming amplifies the variability of the NAO, and thus enhances extreme states of the NAO in summer.

Southern-Ocean Storms and Carbon Uptake in ICON
The Southern Ocean takes up a disproportionately large amount of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which is in part due to the extremely windy conditions in this region. In my talk, I will present an initial analysis of the impact of Southern-Ocean storms on carbon uptake in a coupled atmosphere-ocean simulation that was run with ICON and includes the HAMOCC ocean biogeochemistry component.

Understanding the tropical high-cloud feedback trough the lens of ice water path
The tropical high-cloud radiative effect and its change with warming remain poorly understood. Hence, high clouds contribute most to the uncertainty within the cloud feedback (Sheerwood et al., 2020). We aim to improve this understanding by developing a conceptual model of the high-cloud radiative effect, following the idea that the ice water path determines the cloud radiative properties.
