Hauke Schmidt is a Group Leader in the Department of Climate Physics at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology (MPI-M) in Hamburg, Germany. He leads the 'Global Circulation and Climate' research group and serves as Deputy Director of the 'Atmosphere in the Earth System' department. His work focuses on climate modeling, atmospheric circulation, and climate sensitivity, using tools such as the ICON-Sapphire storm-resolving model and idealized radiative-convective equilibrium models. His research interests center on understanding how atmospheric circulation influences Earth's climate response to forcings, particularly equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS). He investigates processes in the upper tropical troposphere, pattern effects, and the vertical structure of climate models. His work spans atmospheric dynamics, chemistry-radiation interactions, solar and volcanic forcing, climate engineering, and adjoint modeling for sensitivity analysis. The recent publications highlight a strong focus on high-resolution climate modeling (ICON-Sapphire), radiative feedbacks, stratospheric aerosol effects, volcanic and solar forcing, and model development. His work bridges theoretical atmospheric dynamics with practical Earth system modeling, contributing significantly to CMIP and GeoMIP intercomparisons. Scientific Awards and Honors: Contributing Author, IPCC AR5 WG1 (Chapter 7: Clouds and Aerosols) Advising and Grants: Hauke Schmidt has advised numerous PhD and Master’s students, including Helene Glöckner, Abisha Gnanaraj, Moritz Günther, Paul Keil, Clarissa Kroll, and Sally Dacie. He has led and participated in multiple major research projects funded by DFG, BMBF, and EU programs, such as VolImpact, CELARIT, ComparCE, EUTRACE, and IMPLICC. These projects focus on volcanic impacts, climate engineering, and solar variability. Labs and Teams: He leads the 'Global Circulation and Climate' group within the Department of Climate Physics at MPI-M. He is actively involved in the development and application of the ICON and ECHAM/HAMMOZ family of models. He has contributed to the UA-ICON extension for middle atmosphere simulations and the konrad radiative-convective model.
