Climate: Past, Present & Future

Mohamed Bayoumy

Mohamed received his PhD in physical oceanography from Alexandria University (Egypt) (2019), followed by a postdoc at the University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS) in Norway (2020-2022). He is currently working as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Liège (Belgium). His research focuses on changes in sea level, sea surface temperature, and sea ice concentration, as well as trends related to climate change, using in-situ observations and remote sensing data. He is also interested in air-sea-ice interactions and marine heatwaves in regional seas such as the Barents Sea, the North Sea, the Black Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Red Sea.

The North Sea Is Heating Up: What Marine Heatwaves Tell Us About Climate Change?

Mohamed Bayoumy November 3, 2025

As scientists, we are acutely aware that our planet’s climate is changing, but the speed and severity of these changes can still surprise us. As global temperatures rise, certain regions become hotspots experiencing more intense and amplified warming. As a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Liège, I have been closely studying amplified warming and …[Read More]

About

Welcome to the blog of the Climate: Past, Present and Future (CL) Division of the European Geosciences Union (EGU). The CL division covers all aspects of the ocean-climate-atmospheric systems, encompassing multiple, overlapping and complementary disciplines. We focus on the reconstruction of past climatic changes, the state of the current climate, and model predictions of future climate scenarios.

Through this blog, we aim to share a wide range of topics in climate science, not only with fellow scientists, but also with anyone interested in learning more about the climate system and its changes. This blog is run with great enthusiasm by our Editors-in-Chief. Everybody is warmly invited to contribute to the blog and submit posts to either Shalenys Bedoya-Valestt, Ceren Moral or Bianca Biess.
