Victoria Sinclair is an University lecturer and docent in at the University of Helsinki in the research group on Dynamical Meteorology. Her research primarily focuses on the dynamics of extra-tropical cyclones and how these weather systems will change in the future. Other topics of interest include heat waves, low-level jets, poleward moisture transport and transport of pollution and aerosol particles. In her research she uses numerical weather prediction models – OpenIFS and WRF – as well as reanalysis data sets and FLEXPART, a Lagrangian Dispersion model.

Victoria has been a frequent participant of the EMS Annual Meetings, and received a Young Scientist Travel Award for attending the EMS2011 in Berlin. Victoria is a member (fellow, FRMetS) of the Royal Meteorological Society.
