Arrivals
Dr Michael Herzog
University Lecturer in Atmospheric Science: Numerical Modelling of dynamical and microphysical processes from local to global scales
Dr Michael Herzog joins us having spent two years as a visiting scientist at NOAA Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory at Princeton, New Jersey. Michael has a PhD in Geophysical Sciences from Max-Planck-Institute of Meteorology in Hamburg, Germany. His research activities and interests include the development of atmospheric models from local to global scales; modelling of convective clouds and volcanic plumes; the role of convection in the climate system, understanding of the hydrological cycle in present and future climate; and understanding the role of aerosols in present and future climate, and the impact of aerosols on dynamical and microphysical processes.

Dr Andrew Friend
University Senior Lecturer in Environmental Science and Fellow of Clare College
Dr Andrew Friend joins us having spent time since 2003 time at LSCE, Saclay, in France. His research interests focus on the use of numerical models to study vegetation-environment interactions, plant ecophysiology, and feedbacks between global change and biospheric processes at a wide range of scales
Andrew has provided us with a very interesting article on page 6 of this newsletter.
