معرفی
Volkmar Wirth is a full Professor of Theoretical Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics at the Institute for Atmospheric Physics, Johannes Gutenberg-University Mainz. His research focuses on Rossby wave packets, forecast error dynamics, tropopause behavior, mountain meteorology, and tropical cyclone processes.
- Full Professor since 2000
- Specialist in midlatitude waveguidability and extreme weather predictability
- Active in mountain meteorology (banner clouds) and hurricane dynamics
Teaching includes graduate courses on atmospheric hydrodynamics, predictability, and potential vorticity applications. He supervises project assignments involving numerical modeling in FORTRAN-90 and leads meteorology practicals with time series analysis experiments.
Recent publications analyze Rossby wave propagation in changing climates, temperature extremes, and waveguide limitations. His group collaborates extensively on "Waves to Weather" predictability research.
Current affiliations: Johannes Gutenberg-University Mainz, Institute for Atmospheric Physics.
