Biography
I was born in Barcelona (Spain) in 1985 and I have been a meteorology-lover since I was a child. For this reason, I studied for a Bachelor Degree in Physics and then a Master in Meteorology. During my university studies, I had my first and unforgettable work experience in this field at the Barcelona radiosounding station. I remember that every single day was like a practical class, by looking at the vertical profile of the troposphere and low stratosphere. Also, I had the opportunity of being part of the team in charge of measuring and monitoring the tropospheric ozone level during the summer surveillance campaign.
When I finished my university years, I started, along with Predictability Group, a project about ensemble prediction at very high-resolution ensemble forecast in the aeronautics field at the Spanish Agency of Meteorology. This allowed me to learn lots of programming languages such as Python, C/C++, Fortran, Linux Shell scripting and so on. Furthermore, as the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) ensemble was also used in this project, I became familiar with some tools used in this centre.
Recently, I did my doctoral research on climate science at the Climate Change Research Centre in Sydney, Australia. In particular, my project focuses on the role of meridional movement of Pacific winds in El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) event onset and termination. I used simplified coupled models, reanalysis products and data from the state-of-the-art CMIP5 climate models.
Currently, I am working on sea level changes with Dr. John Church as a Research Assistant at the same institution where I did my doctoral research.
