معرفی
Dr. Ranjini Swaminathan is a Research Fellow in the Meteorology Department at the University of Reading, serving as a Core Scientist for the NCEO UK Earth System Model (UKESM). Her research focuses on advancing Earth system modeling, particularly in climate sensitivity, machine learning applications for vegetation modeling, and ocean-climate interactions. She contributes to interdisciplinary studies on global warming thresholds, carbon cycle projections, and model evaluation frameworks like ESMValTool. Her work bridges climate science with computational methods, addressing critical questions in regional climate impacts and extreme weather prediction.
Swaminathan’s expertise includes developing and validating Earth system models, collaborating on initiatives such as the UKESM project and the CMIP framework. She has published extensively on topics including climate extremes, AI in weather forecasting, and terrestrial biome classification through explainable clustering techniques. Her office is located in Harry Pitt Building, Room HP177.
While no scientific awards are explicitly listed, her contributions to climate science have advanced understanding of future climate scenarios and model reliability. She has not listed advisees, but her work involves collaborative projects with international research teams.
