Biography
Dr. Sabine Attinger is a physicist and joint head, with Dr. Luis Samaniego, of the Department of Computational Hydrosystems as well as Head of the Thematic Area Smart Models / Monitoring at the UFZ in Leipzig. She holds a chair for "Mathematical Modeling" at the University of Potsdam. Her current research concerns the design and creation of geographically distributed multiscale forecasting models, their parameterisation and the evaluation of model and parameter uncertainties in model forecasts. Since 2009, she has been spokesperson for the Division of Environmental Systems Modelling and since 2014, spokesperson for the "From Observations to Predictions" topic in the Helmholtz "Terrestrial Environment" research programme
