Philip Stier (he/him)

I am a Professor of Atmospheric Physics working on physical aspects of the climate system, with a focus on clouds, aerosols, and radiation. Clouds play a key role in the climate system, modulating Earth's radiation balance and driving its hydrological cycle. The response of clouds to our changing climate (cloud feedbacks) and to changes in air pollution (aerosol-cloud interactions) remains poorly understood and constitutes the largest uncertainty in our ability to predict climate change. 

In our dynamic Climate Processes research group, we tackle these outstanding climate science questions from multiple approaches, combining theory, numerical modelling, Earth observations with AI and machine learning.  You can find my publications online under ORCID and Google Scholar.
