Joni-Pekka Pietikäinen is a scientific staff member of the Climate Service Infrastructure department at the Climate Service Center Germany. He studied physics in Kuopio, Finland, and worked in the regional climate modelling group at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Hamburg between 2008-2011. After his time in Hamburg, he continued his research at the Finnish Meteorological Institute in Helsinki and got his PhD in 2015 from the University of Eastern Finland (Kuopio). In his thesis Joni-Pekka investigated the aerosol-atmosphere interactions on global and regional scales.
