Since 2020, I have been a PhD student in the working group Dynamics of regional climate systems.

My research with the concept title "Development of Baltic Sea marine heatwaves in the past and future" is part of the project CoastalFutures II.

Research interests

  • Marine heatwaves
  • Baltic Sea climate variability
  • Climate projections
