Himadri Saini

Himadri Saini is a Research Fellow at the University of Melbourne and a member of the ARC Centre of Excellence for the 21st Century Weather. Her research focuses on climate science, paleoclimatology, and ocean biogeochemistry.

• Education: PhD in Climate Science (2023), University of New South Wales
• Postdoctoral Research: University of New South Wales (AMOC slowdown impacts on Australian climate)
• Current Work: Tropical climate variability, weather-climate interactions, and future climate risks

Her research combines Earth system models, paleoclimate data, and modern observations to analyze climate dynamics, with a focus on tropical Australia. She has published extensively on topics such as AMOC slowdown, ocean iron fertilisation, and climate-driven hydrological changes.

Her recent publications (2020–2025) span paleoclimatology, ocean biogeochemistry, climate modeling, and air quality policy. Key themes include the global carbon cycle, ocean circulation-climate feedbacks, and mitigation strategies for environmental health.

Currently, she investigates tropical climate variability and weather-climate interactions in Australia using advanced model simulations and observational datasets.
