Dr. Shreya Dhame

Postdoctoral Scientist Ocean in the Earth System, Max Planck Institute for Meteorology

Shreya is a researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg. There, using climate models, she is studying the causes of the pattern of warming trend that has occurred in the tropical Pacific Ocean in the recent decades. This is critical for understanding future climate and its impacts around the world.
She holds a PhD in Climate Science and is interested in using a variety of data analysis tools to provide more robust projections of the Earth’s climate in the coming decades. Using her expertise in the physical science of climate change, she also contributes to science communication for climate policy and advocacy.

How much will the surface of the tropical Pacific warm in the future? What interactions and feedbacks between the atmosphere and the ocean are driving this trend? And how will climate change affect temperature and precipitation worldwide?
