Patric Boardman
Postgraduate Researcher
Mathematics and Statistics
I am a climate mathematician with a focus on using statistical analysis to obtain insights into the evolution of the earth's clmate.
From a young age, I always had an enthusiasm to understand the the natural world and how we can use this knowledge to help better life on earth.
Originally a physics graduate, I decided to focus on environmental sciences by persuing a one-year masters degree in aerosol science. This sparked my interest into the dynamics of the earth, as well as the role that aerosols play in our climate. My current specific focus is into 'Emergent Constraints'; a statistcial technique aimed at combining the reesults from highly sophisticated earth system models with obsrrvational data in order to elucidate knowlegde of various attributes of the climate.
Outside of my physics, I enjoy many hobies such as my music, graphic design, getting out and about in nature, and having in depth geeky conversations about just about anything.
