Autorenporträt
Anja Schmidt is a Research Fellow at the Institute for Climate and Atmospheric Science, University of Leeds, since March 2011. Her current work involves modelling large-scale, sulphur-rich Icelandic volcanic eruptions using both a Global Aerosol Model (GLOMAP) and a Lagrangian particle model (NAME). She is currently using these models to simulate the impact of present-day Laki-style eruptions on air pollution and its subsequent impacts on human health and commercial aviation. Anja Schmidt received several honors and other accolades, for example: - Honourable mention for outstanding student presentation, VMSG 2011 - 3rd prize University of Leeds Postgraduate Researcher of the year competition, 2010 - University of Leeds PhD Research Scholarship (URS) (Oct 2007 - Oct 2010) - 1st prize University of Leeds Faculty of Environment Conference, Poster Competition, 2008 - IAVCEI young scientist grant (2008)
