EUREC4A, is an international initiative in support of the World Climate Research Programme's Grand Science Challenge on Clouds, Circulation and Climate Sensitivity. The field campaign took place between 20 January and 20 February 2020 with operations based out of Barbados.
On this episode we have a very special interviewer, Anna Lesbros, a 14-year-old student that came from France to Leeds to discover how research is carried out at the University. Anna will infiltrate in the heart of the field campaign and interview 8 members of the Eurec4a project:
- Anna-Lea Albright (PhD student at LMD, Paris, France)
- Professor Alan Blyth (NCAS, University of Leeds, UK)
- Dr Sandrine Bony (LMD, Paris, France)
- Dr Leif Denby (University of Leeds, UK)
- Dr Arlene Laing (Director of the Caribbean Meteorological Organization)
- Professor Szymon Malinowski (University of Warsaw, Poland)
- Professor Doug Parker (University of Leeds, UK)
- Dr Raphaela Vogel (LMD, Paris, France)
EUREC4A aims at advancing understanding of the interplay between clouds, convection and circulation and their role in climate change. But why is the project important? How's a day in the life of an atmospheric scientist during a field campaign? How do they take measurements of clouds?
Listen to the episode and find out more about this exciting way of doing science. We hope you enjoy it!
"Look around you...the world is interesting and beautiful, and meteorology is about applying mathematics and physics to study your closest environment"
