My profile

Biography

My background is in atmospheric science and I have specialized in climate science and in particular, the impacts of aviation on climate, for the last 24 years. I have considerable scientific project and personnel management experience and have led large international multi-institutional projects. I have particular skills in developing links between science and policy, and work at an international level, e.g. the European Commission, ICAO, UNEP, IMO, WMO, IPCC, and have long experience in international scientific assessments at e.g. IPCC, UNEP, ICAO, IMO, peer-reviewed publications.

Impact

SCOPUS h-index 32; 7,792 citations across 6,275 documents; 93 documents by author (as of 27-02-2024)

Through my research on the climate impacts of aviation and shipping I have acted as an official technical advisor to international bodies including ICAO, IMO, UNEP, WMO, and the European Commission.

I have been influential and directly involved in work that has shaped international policy and regulation (e.g. design of the EU emissions trading scheme for aviation; ICAO CO2 emission standard for aircraft; ICAO global market-based mechanism ‘CORSIA’). I have my own research specialism of transportation impacts on climate and international profile and have been a lead author for IPCC since 1999 on various assessment reports (IPCC working groups I and II, Greenhouse Gas Guidance, Special Reports). The IPCC awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007.

I currently co-lead the ‘Impacts and Science Group’ within the International Civil Aviation Organization.

I am a member of the UK Civil Aviation Authority’s Environmental Sustainability Panel https://www.caa.co.uk/our-work/about-us/the-caa-s-environmental-sustainability-panel/

I am a member of the Aerospace Technology Institute’s Sustainability Advisory Panel

Understanding aircraft emissions and their effect on the climate

How do we ‘do our bit’ for the environment and still enjoy our holidays?
