Kitty Attwood

Academic Profile

I graduated with a BA in Geography from the University of Oxford in 2022, receiving the Met Office Academic Partnership Award for my dissertation on the Kalahari heat low in southern Africa. I was also awarded the University of Oxford Innovation Award for my internship at Brazil's National Institute for Space Research (INPE), where I analysed precipitation intensity in high resolution climate model simulations over southeast Brazil. I am part of the Oxford Climate Research Lab in the School of Geography and the Environment, with whom I have worked in Zambia as a fieldwork assistant on the DRY-CAB campaign to understand rainfall onset over southern Africa.

Current Research
