Kirsten Zickfeld is a Distinguished Professor in the Department of Geography at Simon Fraser University. Her research focuses on the effects of anthropogenic emissions, greenhouse gases, and climate forcing on multi-centennial timescales. She aims to understand the response of the climate system to these interactions and improve future predictions using complex Earth system models. Her research encompasses themes such as the reversibility of human-induced climate change, the relationship between carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies, and carbon cycle responses consistent with climate targets. Additionally, she investigates feedback mechanisms within the climate-carbon system and their implications for global warming. Zickfeld actively engages in educating graduate students and post-doctoral researchers interested in climate science. Her extensive publication record highlights her contributions to the understanding of climate dynamics, carbon budgets, and greenhouse gas emissions.
