Jonathan Gregory

Professor Jonathan Gregory is a climate scientist at the University of Reading. His research focuses on ocean heat uptake, sea-level rise, and climate modeling. He has contributed to major international projects including CMIP6 and ISMIP6, addressing uncertainties in climate projections.

His interests span ocean thermodynamics, paleoclimate reconstruction, polar ice-sheet dynamics, and climate feedback mechanisms. His work emphasizes quantitative analysis of Earth's energy budget and its implications for future climate scenarios.

Recent articles collectively investigate ocean warming patterns, sea-level variability, ice-sheet vulnerability, and climate model intercomparisons. Key themes include the role of aerosols in modulating ocean heat, the impact of ocean stratification on climate sensitivity, and probabilistic frameworks for sea-level risk assessment.

He collaborates extensively through international consortia and contributes to high-impact assessments like the IPCC reports. His laboratory focuses on developing advanced climate models and diagnostic tools to improve prediction accuracy.
