Nick is an Earth scientist primarily researching the Antarctic ice sheet using numerical models and field data. He's a former Rutherford Discovery Fellow, a Lead Author on the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and currently leads a number of components of the MBIE-funded ‘Antarctic Science Platform’ and ‘Our Changing Coasts’ research programmes.
Nick is one of the Co-Chairs of the Modelling and Modelling and Future Projections Expert Group.
At the Hub, his projects include:
- State-dependent ice-sheet resonance under Cenozoic and future climates
- Ice-sheet model intercomparison project phase 6 (ISMIP6)
-
Graph theory and statistical mechanics approaches to climate and ice sheet science
- Antarctic surface mass balance and surface melt
