Head of the Working Group: Univ.-Prof. Stephan Pfahl

The research of the working group "Weather and Climate Processes" headed by Stephan Pfahl covers various aspects of atmospheric dynamics, extreme weather events and the atmospheric water cycle. Numerical models of varying complexity and different observational data sets are used to study atmospheric processes and phenomena on time scales ranging from single weather events to long term climate change. The group's main teaching areas are physical climatology, climate dynamics and numerical modeling of weather and climate.
