Dr. Denis Sergeev is a lecturer in the Astrophysics group at the University of Bristol. His research employs numerical models to understand the complexities of planetary climates and atmospheric processes, including dynamics, convection, clouds, and lightning. Dr. Sergeev is particularly interested in the habitability of terrestrial exoplanets and collaborates closely with the Met Office to adapt the new atmospheric model, LFRic, for extraterrestrial environments. Before joining the University of Bristol, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Exeter, where he engaged in simulating the atmospheres of terrestrial exoplanets. Dr. Sergeev obtained his PhD in Meteorology from the University of East Anglia, focusing on climatology and the dynamics of high-latitude mesoscale cyclones, known as polar lows. His earlier education includes a Specialist Diploma in Meteorology and Climatology from Moscow State University.
Department of Physics research themes include Astrophysics, Materials and Devices, Particle Physics, and Quantum and Soft Matter.
