Mireia Ginesta-Fernandez

I am a PhD student at the Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l'Environnement (LSCE), as part of the EDIPI project (https://edipi-itn.eu/). My research interest is focused on understanding the impact of climate change on extreme weather events, specially on the wet and windy events. Currently, I am working on the attribution of severe extratropical cyclones affecting Europe to climate change.

Extratropical cyclones play a key role in modulating the precipitation and wind in mid-latitudes and can be responsible for extreme wet and windy events. With global warming, the dynamics and thermodynamics associated with these atmospheric systems are being affected. However, due to the complexity of modelling the climate system, a challenge arises when evaluating the influence that climate chang ...[Read More]
