I am a Research Fellow in Mathematics at the Vortex Dynamics Group, University of St. Andrews, working with Dr. Richard Scott on dynamical problems in the stratosphere.
During 2005-2009 I did my PhD in the Atmospheric Dynamics Group at DAMTP under the supervision of Prof. Peter Haynes. The title of my thesis is Lagrangian studies of troposphere-to-stratosphere transport. For the year 2009-2010 I was a post-doctoral fellow at DAMTP and worked on the modelling of stratospheric water vapour distributions using Lagrangian tools. My old webpages at DAMTP still contain some useful information.
