Biography
Dr Alex Bradley is a climate scientist specialising in climate modelling, uncertainties in climate model predictions, and processes responsible for the Earth's response to climate change. He focuses in particular on ice sheet and glacier models, using mathematical and computational modelling, geophysical observations, data science, and machine learning. You can find out more about his research on his website.
Alex began working at King's in 2024, after completing post-doctoral and research positions at the British Antarctic Survey, University of Cambridge, and Stanford University. He holds Undergraduate, Masters and Doctorate degrees in Applied Mathematics from the University of Oxford.
