Prof. Dr. Gerrit LohmannAWIGerrit Lohmann studied physics and mathematics at the Universities Göttingen and Marburg , and he worked as a graduate research assistent at the Alfred-Wegener-Institute for Polar and Marine Research in Bremerhaven. In 1994, he was a visiting scientist at the Earth Science Centre, University of Gothenburg and got a scholarship of the German Academic Exchange Service DAAD. He obtained his Ph.D. Degree in physics in Bremen in 1995. He worked at the Max-Planck-Institute in Hamburg , the Geosciences Department of Bremen , and the Meteorological Institute at the University of Hamburg. From 2002 to 2004, he had a tenure position at Bremen University , Center for Marine Environmental Sciences, and was lecturer at the University of Hamburg and the European Graduate College in Marine Sciences. Since July 2004, he is a professor for "Paleoclimate Dynamics" at the Alfred-Wegener-Institute for Polar and Marine Research in Bremerhaven in cooperation with the Physics Department at the University of Bremen. Research interests are in Earth System Modeling, Theoretical Oceanography and Meteorology, and in the field of Dynamical System Theory. Focus of the research is to identify driving mechanisms for climate change, and to examine resonances and thresholds using numerical, analytical, and empirical models. Special research areas cover the role of the global oceanic thermohaline circulation for abrupt climate shifts and large-scale atmospheric teleconnections. Recent work is related to the physical interpretation of proxy data, e.g. corals, ice cores, and marine sediments.
