Senior researcher and astrophysicist João Mendonça at DTU, the Technical University of Denmark, has been awarded a DKK 15 million ERC Consolidator Grant, for his project Foundation. The new project aims to develop a universal climate model to improve climate predictions on Earth and other planets, including extreme weather events.
Senior researchers and astrophysicists at DTU Space, Victoria Antoci and João Mendonça, have each received 15 million DKK from the European Research Council, ERC, for their research over the next five years into stars and planets respectively. With the two ERC grants, basic research in astrophysics at DTU is further strengthened.
