Douglas Maraun is an associate professor and Head of the Regional Climate Modelling Group at the Wegener Center for Climate and Global Change at the Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz, Austria. His research interests include the processes governing local extreme events, assessing uncertainties of regional climate projections, and statistical post-processing of climate simulations for adaptation planning. He chaired the VALUE network which carried out the most comprehensive inter-comparison and evaluation of different downscaling approaches, and is involved in steering activities of the international downscaling initiative CORDEX.
