RESEARCH INTEREST:

My research area is the Atmospheric Physics, Meteorology and Climatology with focus on the variability of the climate system and the middle atmosphere processes. I concentrate on the quasi-periodic signals in the atmosphere, manifestation of the QBO and the solar sunspot cycle together with the analysis of large-scale circulation and wave activity.
