Sergi González Herrero

Climate and atmospheric scientist 

I’m a climate and atmospheric scientist at the WSL Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research (SLF) in Davos, Switzerland. I am a postdoc studing snow-atmosphere interaction and processes. My research interests are meteorology and climatology of mountain and polar regions including precipitation processes, measurements with remote-sensing instruments, climatology and multidisciplinary studies.
