I am Professor of Regional Climate Change at the Wegener Center for Climate and Global Change and leader of the Regional Climate Research Group.

My research focusses on regional climatic changes and approaches to assess these. I am particularly interested in extreme precipitation, its natural variability and its response to global warming. In parallel I have been working on the evaluation of regional climate models. More recently I have become interested in researching how future weather might manifest: will the character of storms, precipitation or droughts change, and what are the underlying processes?Beyond the purely scientific basic research I collaborate with stakeholders in politics and administration and transfer my knowledge to the general public.

I have contributed as lead author to the recent 6th Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and I am co-chair of the of  interim working group on robust climate information of the World Climate Research Programme, a member of the scientific steering group of the Lighthouse Activity My Climate Risk of the World Climate Research Programme, and member of the steering committee of the Austrian initiative Klimaszenarien.at. At Uni Graz I am co-speaker of the field of excellence Climate Change Graz. A ranking of Stanford University and Elsevier lists me among the 2% top scientists.

In the BSc and MSc programmes on Environmental System Sciences and Atmospheric Physics and Climate I teach Climate and Atmospheric Dynamics, Climate System and Climate Change, Regional Climate Change, Cloud Physics and Climate Modeling. I coordinate the new MSc programme Climate Change and Transformation Science.
