Sebastian Sippel is a PostDoc working jointly at the Climate Physics group and the Seminar for Statistics at ETH Zurich. His research focuses on data-science and machine-learning informed detection and attribution of changes in the climate system and, more specifically, the hydrological cycle. Before joining ETH Zurich, Sebastian obtained a PhD on "Climate Extremes and their impact on ecosystem-atmosphere interactions" at the Max Planck Institute of Biogeochemistry in Jena, Germany (2017) and worked as a climate-ecosystem researcher at the Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy Research.
