Thorsten Mauritsen
Thorsten Mauritsen (born 1977) is a Danish climate scientist. He is currently a professor at the Department of Meteorology at Stockholm University. His research interests include climate dynamics and global circulation, climate sensitivity and cloud feedbacks and ocean-atmosphere coupled problems. He is best known for his research on Earth's equilibrium climate sensitivity and his research uses the climate of the past to determine climate sensitivity more precisely. Biography He was born in Sønderborg and studied physics and meteorology at the University of Copenhagen and Stockholm University. He received his PhD in Stockholm in 2007. He then joined MPI-M as a postdoctoral researcher, and eventually became a group leader at the institute. He has been cited around 10,000 times. His h-index is 44 as of 2021.

Climate Scientist
Climatology (from Greek , ''klima'', "place, zone"; and , ''-logia'') or climate science is the scientific study of Earth's climate, typically defined as weather conditions averaged over a period of at least 30 years. This modern field of study is regarded as a branch of the atmospheric sciences and a subfield of physical geography, which is one of the Earth sciences. Climatology now includes aspects of oceanography and biogeochemistry. The main methods employed by climatologists are the analysis of observations and modelling of the physical processes that determine the climate. The main topics of research are the study of climate variability, mechanisms of climate changes and modern climate change. Basic knowledge of climate can be used within shorter term weather forecasting, for instance about climatic cycles such as the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO), the North Atlantic oscillation (NAO), the Arctic oscillation (AO), the Pac ...
