Nalini Krishnancutty, portrett

My research interest is quantifying greenhouse gas sources and sinks on regional and global scales. For this, I use a combination of ground- and satellite-based measurements and transport models (FLEXPART and LPDM) with Bayesian inversion techniques.
I am also looking into the effect of changes in sources and sinks on the large climate system.
