Lee De Mora
Marine Ecosystem Modeller at Plymouth Marine Laboratory
United Kingdom
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLee De Mora is a marine ecosystem modeller with 13 years’ experience developing, evaluating and operationally monitoring global ocean and Earth System models, notably leading the marine component evaluation for UKESM using the BGC-val toolkit. He blends deep scientific rigour (a PhD in particle physics and ATLAS experience) with practical software leadership as a core contributor and scientific lead to ESMValTool and ESMValCore, driving real-time model monitoring and community-facing training. At Plymouth Marine Laboratory he applies interdisciplinary thinking—assessing CCS leak impacts, supporting novel data systems like SURFERS, and translating model output into public engagement through music and art-science initiatives he founded. Comfortable at the intersection of research, software and outreach, Lee is as much at home tuning climate models as composing sound pieces from model data, bringing rare cross-domain creativity to climate science.
