the-BA : Craig Wallace biography

Dr Craig J. Wallace gained his PhD in climatology from the world-renowned Climatic Research Unit, at the University of East Anglia, UK in 2003. His research focused on global atmospheric and surface temperature responses to global warming and the implication of these changes for the natural seasons. He then spent two years in the Unit as a Senior Research Scientist, employed on government-funded research projects investigating future global climate scenarios, with special emphasis on changing rainfall patterns, the effects of a possible Gulf Stream shutdown, and more recently developing statistical techniques to enable ‘probabilities’ of certain climatic events occurring.

In 2005 he left Norwich for the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton to join the core team of government scientists developing a monitoring system for the Atlantic Gulf Stream circulation. This role has seen him specialise in the communication of the programme’s results to government departments and policy makers who, like much of the general public, are extremely interested in the possibility of future changes to the Atlantic Ocean circulation and, more so, the potential impacts for the British Isles.

In March 2006, Craig was a panellist at My Climate Is Changing at the Dana Centre.
