He currently works on creating a framework for a better accessibility of European climate data for non-expert users (e.g., SEED project ClimVis Europe). He also supports climate risk analysis in the Baltic Sea region.
His research and topics of interests include the evaluation of extreme weather and climate events in the context of climate change, the quality and homogeneity of long-term data series, variability and changes of atmospheric circulation effects, analysis of climate change impacts and possibilities to adapt, climate communication and the visualisation of climate data.
