Profesional background

I completed my doctoral thesis at the University of Hamburg (Germany) in 19991. Subsequently, I obtained a postdoctoral position at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK). In 2003, I joined the Complutense University of Madrid through the Ramón y Cajal Program. Since 2010, I have been an Associate Professor at this university. My research focuses on studying the evolution of climate and the cryosphere in the past and future.
