Neil Hindley is a Research Fellow at the University of Bath's Department of Electronic & Electrical Engineering, affiliated with the Centre for Climate Adaptation & Environment Research (CAER). He holds a PhD in Atmospheric Dynamics from the University of Bath (2016) and an MPhys Astrophysics from Cardiff University (2011). His research focuses on Atmospheric Dynamics, Remote Sensing, and Spectral Analysis Techniques, particularly studying gravity waves and their impacts on climate systems. He leads and collaborates on projects funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), including investigations into upper atmospheric waves, stratospheric-troposphere coupling, and ionospheric variability. As a NERC Independent Research Fellow, he contributes to the UN Sustainable Development Goals related to climate action and environmental protection.
Recent projects include TEAMx-FLOW (2024–2028) and SURGE (2023–2028), exploring flow dynamics and upper atmospheric wave phenomena. His work integrates satellite observations (e.g., Aeolus wind lidar) with advanced modeling techniques, such as convolutional neural networks for gravity wave detection. Notable research includes analyzing the 2019/2020 quasi-biennial oscillation disruption and the global effects of the Hunga Tonga volcanic eruption on atmospheric dynamics.
Awards: NERC Independent Research Fellow (2020–present). Grants include NERC funding for multiple projects totaling over £multi-million. His research outputs span 41 peer-reviewed articles, focusing on gravity wave characteristics, hurricane intensification mechanisms, and mesosphere-lower thermosphere interactions. Collaborations span international teams and institutions, advancing understanding of Earth's atmospheric systems.
