معرفی
Dr. Ambrogio Volonté is a Senior Research Fellow at the Department of Meteorology, University of Reading, and a member of the National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS). His research focuses on cyclone dynamics, particularly Arctic, extratropical, and Mediterranean cyclones, sting jets, and monsoon systems. He leads and contributes to projects funded by NERC and international collaborations, such as the THINICE field campaign investigating Arctic cyclones and the MiLCMOP project studying monsoon progression.
He holds a PhD from the University of Reading (2018) and has extensive experience in numerical weather prediction, Lagrangian analysis of air masses, and process-based weather phenomena. His work includes studying the impact of sea ice on Arctic cyclones, the role of midlatitude dry air in monsoon withdrawal, and evaluating AI models against traditional forecasting methods. Key projects include the global climatology of sting-jet cyclones and the dynamics of extreme windstorms like Storm Ciarán and Eunice.
Volonté collaborates on interdisciplinary projects such as COSMIC (convection-scale modeling in China) and INCOMPASS (monsoon dynamics in India). His research has been published in journals like Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society and Weather and Climate Dynamics. He currently serves as a researcher in several grants, focusing on Arctic cyclones, sting jets, and monsoon processes.
