Meet an Exoplanet Climatologist -- with Dr Denis Sergeev

Dr Denis Sergeev is an exoclimatologist - an expert at taking climate models designed for Earth and applying them to exoplanets. Denis has recently been leading a study using the same models that the UK Met Office use to forecast the weather to simulate the climate of the rocky exoplanet TRAPPIST-1e. Denis tells us all about this work, how he brings his expertise as a climate modeller into exoplanet science, and about the exciting future of the field of exoclimatology.
