Meteorolog med spesiell interesse for luftforurensing i Arktis
Maria forsker på partikler og andre kortlevde komponenter i atmosfæren med fokus på sotpartikler og klimaendringer i Arktis. Til dette brukes globale klimamodeller, slik som den norske klimamodellen, NorESM. Maria har en doktorgrad i Meteorologi og Oseanografi fra Universitetet i Oslo (2014). HUn har også jobbet to år som gjesteforsker ved NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies i USA.
Prosjekter
- The role of short-lived climate forcers in the global climate regime This project will provide a comprehensive assessment of the potential of mitigation of Short-Lived Climate Forcers (SLCFs) in the emerging global climate regime.
- BlackArc (Black carbon and Arctic climate) How do Black Carbon (BC) aerosols influence Arctic climate change? The outcome of the ‘BlackArc’ project is to reduce the uncertainty in modelling BC and to better constrain the climate impact of BC with an Arctic focus.

Impact of absorbing Aerosols on Radiative forcing in the European Arctic
The climate impact of absorbing aerosols, such as black carbon particles originating from fossil fuel combustion or biomass burning, mineral dust and volcanic ash, is still very poorly understood especially its role in the atmosphere of polar regions.
- Cryosphere - Atmosphere interactions in changing Arctic climate Objectives: To identify and quantify the major processes controlling Arctic warming and related feedback mechanisms, outline strategies to mitigate Arctic warming, and develop Nordic Earth System modelling. The focus is on short-lived climate forcers (SLCF), including natural and anthropogenic aerosols.
