    Curriculum Vitae AKSEL WALLØE HANSEN Deputy head of Institute, Associate Professor, PhD Niels Bohr Institute University of Copenhagen Juliane Maries Vej 30, DK – 2100 Copenhagen OE, Denmark Email : [email protected] MAIN RESEARCH AREAS: My scientific interest over the years has had two components: models of the atmosphere and studies of the climate. My work started in the 70’s within atmospheric modeling, especially aiming at the implementation of spectral models in numerical weather forecast systems. Together with a colleague I made the very first 10-day global weather forecast using the spectral method. And we also made the very first non-linear normal mode initialization of realistic data for the same model. I have employed global model to the study of ozone in climate context. In the last decade I have worked on climate issues of different kinds, e.g. the possible impact of Sun on climate. Recently I have worked on detection of snow/ice melt/freeze using satellites. A new research area of interest is the atmospheric energy budget in relation the energy consumption of the human society.
