WEBSITES
INTRODUCTION
Philip Stier's research addresses physical climate processes in the context of anthropogenic perturbations to the earth system as the underlying cause of climate change and air pollution. His key interests lie in aerosol and cloud physics, their interactions and their role in the climate system. He is also Principal Investigator for a European Research Council project on the highly uncertain effects of aerosols on precipitation and he leads the new Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network, iMIRACLI, which brings together leading climate and machine learning scientists from academia and industry across Europe to educate a new generation of climate data scientists. Philip also heads the Climate Processes Group and serves on the Space @ Oxford and the Oxford Climate Research Network steering groups. He is passionate about the power of interdisciplinary approaches to address complex questions around the causes and impacts of climate change. Through the Climate Processes Group, Phillip combines work on global climate models, earth observations from satellites and surface and aircraft based in-situ measurements, as well as detailed process models with theory to improve our understanding of the climate system.
