Dr David Jaroszweski researches the impacts of weather and potential impacts of climate change on transport systems. This research adopts a multidisciplinary approach and includes assessing the current relationships between weather and transport failure, the potential impact of climate change and the effect that concurrent socio-economic change may have on the future resilience of transport networks. David is a lead author for the UK’s Third Climate Change Risk Assessment. 

Qualifications

  • 2006-2010 PhD Geography (University of Birmingham)
  • 2004-2005 MSc Applied Meteorology and Climatology (University of Birmingham )
  • 2001-2004 BSc Environmental Science ( University of Birmingham)

Teaching

David is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and has a significant teaching profile which spans several programmes of study. He is module leader for the MSc module “Meteorological Applications and Services”.
