Prof Peter Thorne

Centre Director - ICARUS
Professor of Physical Geography (Climate Science)
Biography
I
am a Professor in Physical Geography (Climate Change) at Maynooth
University in Ireland and Director of the Irish Climate Analysis and
Research UnitS group (ICARUS). I'm on all the usual academia type things
its de rigueur to be on nowadays:
- ResearcherID: F-2225-2014
- ORCID: 0000-0003-0485-9798
- Researchgate: Peter Thorne
- Google scholar: citation page
I completed my PhD in 2001 at the University of East Anglia and
have since worked in a mix of government, academia and research SMEs
across 4 countries (UK, USA, Norway and Ireland). My
main historical interests have been in the investigation of observed
climate changes globally, with a particular emphasis upon temperature
and humidity changes from in-situ measurements (marine, land and weather
balloon). I have also undertaken publication on detection and
attribution (which was the subject of my PhD thesis) and atmospheric
reanalyses.
I am the chair of the
International Surface Temperature Initiative which consists of an
interdisciplinary effort to create a suite of improved Land Surface Air
Temperature products to meet science needs and societal expectations in
the era of climate services. The initiative has four principal aims:
- Improving the completeness and provenance of available basic data holdings
- Promoting the development of novel techniques of homogenization to the basic data holdings
- Benchmarking the performance of candidate techniques of homogenization against synthetically produced analogs to the real world holdings
- Provision of products, tools, and guidance to end-users
I
am co-chair of the GCOS Working Group on the Global Climate Observing
System Reference Upper Air Network (GRUAN). The GRUAN network aims to
instigate a maintain on a multidecadal basis a high quality reference
network of traceable and comparable measurement capabilities at a subset
of global locations in support of monitoring, characterising broader
aspects of the global observing system (including satellites) and
process understanding. I am also the project lead on the Horizon 2020
GAIA-CLIM project which aims to use such measurements to better
characterise satellite measurements.
Research Interests
- Observational climate records
- Atmospheric temperature and humidity
- Future observational strategies
- Detection and attribution
- Climate change assessments
