My professional activities are in Glaciology
and Climate Research, including Solar Geoengineering and Glacier Climate Interventions. I am at Arctic Centre in Rovaniemi Finland.Which has another take on my research
Main projects at present are in glacier-climate interventions, especially sea bed anchored curtains and targeted approaches for preserving the polar regions
Frozen Arctic Conservation
Earth System Modelling and Geoengineering
Sea level rise
Ice flow models
The main issue I try to address is:
Earth’s two large ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland will deteriorate under all
scenarios of climate change projected for the future. This deterioration has already begun
for both Antarctica and Greenland and is causing an ever-accelerating pace of sea-level
rise that will persist into the coming centuries regardless of how optimistically humanity
can shift away from carbon-based energy systems
The tools we use to answer these questions are
Earth System Models on super computers to simulate the response of the earth to changing climate
Mathematical modelling and analysis of the climate records and glacier evolution
You can read more about the results in my publications and in
the UArctic page on tipping point actions

We are actively developing finite element models of glacier flow using ELMER-ICE with CSC. Popularized research descriptions
