Ulla Heede
Postdoctoral Fellow
ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥

Currently a Staff Scientist at [C]Worthy in Boulder, CO (11/2023) ~~~ Brief Bio: Dr. Ulla Heede joined the Oceans and Climate Lab in Fall 2022 as a ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Postdoctoral Fellow. She completed her Ph.D. in ; her research is on tropical climate dynamics, especially toward understanding how the tropical Pacific coupled ocean-atmosphere system responds to anthropogenic radiative forcing. Ulla completed her undergraduate education at the  (UK). As a graduate student at Yale, her research combining satellites and climate models was  through the Future Investigators in NASA Earth and Space Science and Technology (FINESST) fellowship. While at ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥, Ulla plans to isolate the climate impacts associated with an enhanced eastern Pacific warming using state-of-the-art global climate models. An overarching goal of her work is to build bridges between large-scale climate dynamics and societal and policy relevant information on climate impacts. In addition, she is part of a project lead by Prof. Aneesh Subramanian working on understanding tropical air-sea interactions using high-resolution models and machine learning.
