Biography

Full (tenure) professor at the Faculty of Science, University of Zagreb, where he graduated and obtained his master's degree in 1983 and 1987; received his PhD in physics in 1992 from the Desert Research Institute, Reno, NV, USA; first postdoc in the USA, second in Uppsala, Sweden (40 months in total); he was an associate professor at the University of Uppsala and then at the University of Stockholm, Sweden, from 1996 and 1997 to 2003, when he returned to Zagreb after 15 years of working abroad. Duration of education: 25 years, i.e., (8 elementary + 4 gymnasium + 4 undergrad + 2 master + 4 PhD + 3 postdoc) years. He has published over 90 peer-reviewed scientific papers mainly in journals of significantly above-average impact factors in atmospheric physics and meteorology with climatology. His cumulative or total impact factor is over 410, he has been cited about 2370 to over 2550 and over 3710 times [W-o-S, Scopus and Google Scholar], so he is one of the most cited Croatian meteorologists [h - index between 28 and 34, i10 - index 62]. He has coauthored nearly 200 conference papers, a dozen of those were invited ones and provided a few tens of internatially invited seminars. In addition to atmospheric waves and turbulence, he deals with mountain and coastal meteorology and (micro)climatology. He has led or collaborated in a number of international scientific projects including fieldwork, intensive airborne measurements, radar and radiosonde measurements. He has been involved in the improvement of numerical meteorological models: from numerical schemes to parameterization of turbulent processes. Moreover, he has been a member of the editorial boards of several international journals including Tellus A series (since 2003), etc., reviewed over 150 scientific papers and projects (including the IPCC 2021 report, for 3 chapters), participated in over 45 PhD committees in 11 countries on three continents, teaches several university courses in Dynamic Meteorology at all levels, (co-)led 11 PhD dissertations and over 45 diploma or master theses and introduced a few new scientific approaches in mesoscale and microscale meteorology, i.e., in geophysical fluid dynamics.
