In situ aircraft measurements of NO, NO_y, CO and O_3 in the free troposphere between 60 N and 60 S North-South contrast...
In situ aircraft measurements of NO, NO_y, CO and O_3 performed on board the DLR research aircraft Falcon are used to examine the interhemispheric differences for midlatitudes during local autumn. The observations were part of the INCA-campaign (Interhemispheric differences in cirrus properties due to anthropogenic emissions). Mayor deployment site...

During CARLOTTA we established the first long-term climatology of so called warm conveyor belts (WCBs) and the first long-term climatology of global-scale pollutant transport. The analysis of the pollutant transport climatology is based on calculations with the Lagrangian particles dispersion model FLEXPART, over a 15-year period. The typical pathw...
Investigations on the environmental chemistry of atmospheric mercury on local, regional and global scales
Mercury is outstanding among the global environmental pollutants of continuing concern. Long-range atmospheric transport, its transformation to more toxic methylmercury compounds, and their bioaccumulation in the aquatic food-chain have motivated intensive international research in this field. The starting point of this habilitation thesis is a res...

On North Pacific climate variability
The climate variability in the North Pacific is re-investigated by using the latest Hadley Centre SST analysis covering the period 1870-1998 and other observational datasets. The main result of this study is that the North Pacific decadal and multi-decadal variability on time scales from 10-50 years evolves independently of the variations in the tr...

Low-frequency variability of meridional transport in the divergence zone of the North Atlantic subtropical and subpolar ...
The subinertial, climate relevant variability of the large-scale ocean circulation in the northern North Atlantic and its integral key parameters such as the advective transports of mass (volume), heat and freshwater are determined from observations alone using the hydrographic data from seven realisations of the so-called '48 N'-section between th...
