Simon Lee is a final-year PhD student in the Department of Meteorology at the University of Reading, UK, supervised by Prof. Andrew Charlton-Perez and Prof. Steven Woolnough, alongside Dr. Jason Furtado at the University of Oklahoma. He is also co-Editor in Chief of the Royal Meteorological Society’s Weather journal. Prior to this, he gained a Master’s degree in Meteorology from the University of Reading. His PhD research focuses on extratropical subseasonal stratosphere-troposphere coupling; particularly, the tropospheric processes which can drive stratospheric polar vortex variability and how the stratosphere can modulate tropospheric weather regimes.
