Biography

Qualifications: BSc Mathematics, PhD Applied Mathematics, University of Leeds

Memberships/Fellowships: Royal Meteorological Society

Research Interests: Mesoscale meteorology, fluid dynamics (computational and experimental)

Simon Vosper joined the School in November 1995 from the Department of Applied Mathematical Studies. His research focusses on atmospheric flows over hills and mountains. In particular his interests include processes such as internal gravity-wave generation and propagation, lee vortex shedding, flow separation, flow splitting and gravity-wave breaking. Simon has experience in both computational and experimental fluid dynamics as well as field measurement techniques.

Simon is employed by the Met Office and is a Visiting Lecturer at the Institute for Atmospheric Science.
