Dr Iestyn Woolway's research focuses on the physical interactions between climate and water, with a particular interest in the physics and hydrology of lakes worldwide. This includes aspects such as climate-induced variations in lake evaporation, water temperature, ice cover and energy fluxes. Using a combination of in-situ, satellite, and modelled data, his research aims to answer key questions that relate to climate-related changes of inland waters. He graduated from Bangor University in 2011 with a BSc and MSc in Physical Oceanography and then undertook a PhD in Physical Limnology at University College London (2011-2015). Dr Woolway was then a Postdoctoral Research Assistant in the Department of Meteorology at the University of Reading (2015-2018). In 2018, Dr Woolway was awarded a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship, hosted at Dundalk Institute of Technology (Ireland), followed by a European Space Agency Fellowship in 2020 - based at the ESA Climate Office in Oxfordshire. In 2021, Dr Woolway was awarded a UK Natural Environment Research Council Independent Research Fellowship. He joined the School of Ocean Sciences as a NERC Independent Research Fellow (Reader) in 2022.

• Citations and contribution to BAMS annual report: State of the Climate in 2021

  State of the Climate is the authoritative annual summary of the global climate published in the Bulletin of the American Meteorology Society (BAMS).

  The report provides a comprehensive update on Earth’s climate indicators, including notable weather events and other data collected by environmental monitoring stations and

  instruments located on land, water, ice and in space.

  The report is led by scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Centres for Environmental Information and published by BAMS and is based on collaborative contributions from more than 530 scientists.

  Iestyn had a leading role in two key sections of the report including on Lake ice and Lake surface temperature.
