Our new study provides the first rigorous demonstration that climate models are capable of successfully diagnosing clear-air turbulence and its response to climate change.

In other words, we are very confident climate change is making turbulence worse.

Great to see our turbulence increase data being beautifully visualized and featured in the Guardian today.

@Multilingualtri Haha I wish ☺️

[Luke Storer @LukeNStorer]

Do you think my old team thought I talked about my PhD to much? 😂 great leaving present though!

[Luke Storer @LukeNStorer]

I was invited by the Royal Aeronautical Society to talk about my PhD research, here's the link if you want to find out more about aviation turbulence! Bumpy Skies Ahead: Turbulence Forecasting and Response to Climate Change https://t.co/P0ZRozsf6O via @YouTube

[Luke Storer @LukeNStorer]

Great to see our paper finally published!!

[Prof Paul Williams @DrPaulDWilliams]

My second new paper in as many weeks is out now!

Here we show that ensemble forecasts of aviation turbulence — including convective turbulence, clear-air turbulence, and mountain wave turbulence — are more skillful and have greater economic value.

Come and join my research group!

I am advertising a fully funded PhD project on using high-resolution climate models to predict increases in atmospheric turbulence.

[Luke Storer @LukeNStorer]

Hopefully our new study will help reduce the impacts of turbulence in the future, especially since the frequency of clear air turbulence is expected to increase with climate change!

[Prof Paul Williams @DrPaulDWilliams]

Our new study forecasts clear-air turbulence using multi-model ensembles for the first time.

Probabilistic predictions provide information about forecast confidence, which is more useful to pilots and flight planners than a simple yes/no binary forecast.

Our new 23-author review paper on high-impact weather for aviation has just been published.

It contains everything you need to know about the latest advances in turbulence, icing, wind shear, fog, contrails, thunderstorms, microbursts, hail, and more!

Nice to see our research featured in this ABC news report on clear-air turbulence affecting flights!

"The climate has always changed" (or similar phrase) does not imply what many seem to think it implies. Let me explain. https://t.co/yJwdOAswMW

[Luke Storer @LukeNStorer]

Disappointed @ideal_home_show to have blatant climate change denial on one main stage, it's events like this where encouraging small changes could make a difference #climatechange #smallchanges

Congratulations to my PhD student Luke for successfully defending his thesis today.

Six scientific papers from one PhD must be some kind of record that will be hard to beat!

[Luke Storer @LukeNStorer]

@missoxtoby I’m on it ☺️

[Luke Storer @LukeNStorer]

@jer_science @DrPaulDWilliams @NOAAeducation @ScienceMusofVA I thought this looked familiar! Spend long enough looking at your work your will spot it anywhere #phdlife

[Luke Storer @LukeNStorer]

Always fun to see figures I created used over and over again. Always brings a smile to my face (even if what it shows is scary!)

[Prof Paul Williams @DrPaulDWilliams]

Here's a fantastic article on the aviation impacts of our atmospheric turbulence research, as featured in the current issue of Planet Earth magazine.
