Associate Professor at University of Reading Meteorology Department. Aerosols, especially dust.
Thanks to @ecmwf.int Reading for hosting our @unirdg-met.bsky.social Uni Reading Meteorology Department Masters students earlier this week. Students had an inspiring morning learning about ECMWF forecasts, research and data centre. What a great opportunity!

Great to be back at #EGU25. A few great improvements this year, thanks @egu.eu:
-Loads more seating around
-Adjustable lanyards
Next please can you improve coffee queue speed by improving access to the milk/sugar area! ☕🙂

I'm at a Great Debate at #EGU25 about the pressure to 'Publish or Perish' (and predatory journals). Interesting results from the audience's Menti so far.

Ahead of the low pressure approaching from the south, strong southerlies will bring #SaharanDust to Europe. This is a classic weather setup for the UK receiving dust at this time of year.

On top of a pollution alert for London, air quality could be poor for a time

A nice summary lead by Barbara Schirllin-Pirscher with co-authors including @sbasart.bsky.social and others (probably not on BlueSky yet)

I'm having a sadly disappointing week at #AMS2025, think I've come down with the flu, keeping to my hotel as much as possible. Sad not to properly catch up with friends and colleagues. Body battery says it all 😢😢
