About
I am a doctoral candidate studying climate-land surface interactions on long timescales. My research focuses mainly on understanding African humid periods across glacial cycles. Part of my work involves use of climate models of different levels of complexity to simulate such ancient climates of the Earth system.
Supervision: Prof. Dr. Martin Claußen (MPI-M/UHH), Prof. Dr. Victor Brovkin (MPI-M), & Dr. Thomas Kleinen (MPI-M).
