Hansi Singh, PhDCo Founder
I am currently CEO, Chief Science Officer, and Co-founder of Planette Inc., a climatetech startup specializing in year-ahead forecasts of environmental variables and extreme weather risks.
I lead the Climate Dynamics Laboratory at the School of Earth & Ocean Sciences at the University of Victoria. Our group researches the physical climate system, particularly the myriad of interactions between atmosphere, ocean, and ice that give rise to the Earth’s climate. We are especially interested in the ever-evolving climate of the polar regions, both Antarctic and Arctic, as well as the large-scale transport of atmospheric water from equator to pole.
I am a co-chair of the Polar Climate Working Group of the Community Earth System Model, whose development hub is at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, USA.
