Climate Change

Elena Surovyatkina has her expertise in Theoretical Physics in the field of Theory of Critical Phenomena. She has contributed to the understanding of critical transitions with the new theory of nonlinear pre-bifurcation noise amplification and rate-depended phenomena. She discovered a new phenomenon of overcooling and overheating of critical temperatures in liquid crystals. Currently, her research is devoted to the spatially organized critical transitions in climate. The most significant contribution in climate dynamics is a new methodology of the earliest forecast of the Indian summer monsoon.
