Fields of expertise

  • Numerical meso-scale modeling; LAPS- and MM5-model.
  • Wind energy; wind atlas, wind power estimation.

On-going scientific projects

  • LAPS (Local Analysis and Prediction System) - model; High resolution analysis and forecast of areas such as bigger cities and their environments.
  • MM5 (Meso-scale Model 5) - model; Meso-scale modeling of areas with complex terrain (coastlines, mountainous areas, valleys, cities etc.). MM5 is used within wind power estimations and to build up of wind atlases.

University and other degrees

  • Doctorial studies; Ph.D work has been started during year 2005
