Visiting Living Planet Fellow Tim Trent will make a presentation of the research he carried out during his stay at the ESRIN Science Hub in 2024.
Tim is currently a research fellow working within the National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO) based at the University of Leicester. In addition to his research role, he also co-chairs the international GEWEX Water Vapour Assessment (G-VAP) working group. Output from this group features in the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
To date, most of his research focuses on the moisture in our atmosphere, but he also has experience working with surface temperatures, aerosol, trace gases and night-time light data. Before receiving his fellowship from the European Space Agency (ESA), he worked on many projects revolving around satellite remote sensing to the Earth’s surface and atmosphere over decadal time scales.
