Maria Zamyatina

Dr. Maria Zamyatina is a Researcher at the University of Exeter, focusing on planetary climates and atmospheric chemistry. Her work integrates 3D chemistry-climate models with observational data, particularly using the Met Office Unified Model for exoplanet simulations. She specializes in the interplay between gas-phase chemistry and atmospheric dynamics to decode exoplanetary environments.

Her research spans Earth-like planets, hot gas giants, and tidally locked systems, with a focus on chemical kinetics, quenching processes, and observational signatures. Notably, she leads efforts to enhance exoplanet configurations of climate models and develops tools like the Aeolus Python library for climate data analysis.

Recent publications highlight her expertise in JWST spectroscopy, terminator asymmetries, and haze impacts on exoplanet atmospheres. She actively contributes to open-source scientific computing through GitHub repositories and participates in academic outreach via seminars and Python training initiatives.
