Research Interest
I am a cloud enthusiast and love to spend my time visualizing and thinking about the many facets inherent to tropical clouds. During my PhD I was mostly fascinated by the rich details of small and optically thin cumulus clouds in the trades and studied their relation to their environment als well as their ubiquity over tropical oceans from space. More recently, I am diving into the deeper convection associated with convergence lines that might play a role in the slightly…

I am a PhD student since May 2022 in the IMPRS-ESM programme at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, supervised by Jochem Marotzke, Dian Putrasahan and Eleanor Frajka-Williams.
I study the mechanisms that drive the variability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). Currently, I am investigating how the meridional connectivity of the AMOC changes with ocean resolution (1°, 0.4° and 0.1°) in the MPI-ESM model, focusing on decadal…
