Katharina Bülow

Katharina Bülow is a Researcher in the Regional and Local Climate Change department at the Helmholtz-Institut Climate Service Science (GERICS). Her work focuses on user-oriented preparation of regional climate simulation results from the EURO-CORDEX ensemble and development of climate indicators.

• PhD in Regional Climate Modelling (University of Hamburg)
• Extensive experience in projects like EUCP, Copernicus C3S, ReKliEs-De, and GLOWA-Elbe
• Specializes in climate service infrastructure, transdisciplinary dialogue, and model validation
• Previously worked at Max Planck Institute for Meteorology and Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency

Her research involves analyzing regional climate simulations, calculating indicators (e.g., future snow cover), and bridging climate science with end-user applications. She has coordinated user co-design approaches in EU Horizon projects and integrated CMIP5 results into CMIP6 frameworks.

Notable projects include:

• EUCP: User co-design coordination
• Copernicus C3S: Regional climate simulations and validation
• ReKliEs-De: Climate indicator development
• GLOWA-Elbe: Regional climate modeling for river basins
