Myles Allen

Founder

Myles Allen is the founder of climateprediction.net (CPDN for short) and was the first to propose the use of Probabilistic Event Attribution to quantify the contribution of human and other external influences on climate to specific individual weather events. He is Professor of Geosystem Science in the School of Geography and the Environment, University of Oxford and Head of the Climate Dynamics Group in the University’s Department of Physics.

Andy Bowery

Senior Research Software Engineer

Andy Bowery is the Senior Software Engineer / Systems Architect of CPDN. Andy works as a researcher at the Oxford e-Research Centre, University of Oxford. Andy’s primarily focus in the project is in incorporating new climate models into the project and on the infrastructure of the project. In addition, Andy has experience building new volunteer distributed computing projects for science.

Glenn Carver

Academic Visitor

Glenn Carver is an Academic Visitor at CPDN. His research in weather forecasting uses the CPDN OpenIFS and Weather@Home models. He contributes to their technical development and assists project scientists in successfully using the models. Previously he worked at the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts managing the OpenIFS project. He has extensive knowledge of research methodologies, data analysis and developing atmospheric models on a wide range of computing systems. He enjoys science communication and participates in the CPDN volunteer community.

Sarah Sparrow

Associate Professor

Sarah Sparrow is the coordinator for CPDN responsible for work unit deployment and experiment submission and day-to-day management of the team. Sarah’s background is in atmospheric dynamics and she is interested in how large scale dynamics translates to climate impact studies. She is experienced in data driven coupling of climate model output to impact models and leads research proposals in this area. Sarah has extensive experience in preparing and analysing large ensembles of climate model output. She has tutored at several international attribution workshops and summer schools.

David Wallom

Professor of Informatics

David Wallom is the technical director of CPDN. he leads Oxford participation in a number of climate impact projects including studies on climate effects on NW timber industry and the effects of extreme weather events on south and east Asia. He is an associate director and leader of the Volunteer Computing Group at the Oxford e-Research Centre, University of Oxford.
