CMIP6 climate model spread outweighs glacier model spread in 21st-century drought buffering projections

Wed, 25 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Lizz Ultee, who advised and inspired me back in 2022 when I was working on my master thesis on global glacier runoff and droughts, and co-authors have recently published a new paper on how glacier runoff buffers droughts during the 21-st century. The study combines our previous work and updates it, presenting an assessment of how glacier runoff buffers drought based on forcing from 11 CMIP6 models and three different global glacier models.

A climatology of atmospheric rivers over Scandinavia and associated precipitation

Wed, 17 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Hans Chen and I have published a new paper where we present a detailed climatology of atmospheric rivers over Scandinavia and how they affect the regional precipitation. If you are interested in differences among AR detection algorithms at higher latitudes, clustering of ARs, or AR related precipitation patterns over Scandinavia, take a look!
