Career

Stéphane Popinet and James Renwick moving oceanographic gear in poor conditions on the sea ice of McMurdo Sound during the K131 2005 science event.

He started his career as a weather forecaster at the New Zealand Met Service (1978–1991). From there he moved to seasonal prediction and climate change studies at National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (1992–2002), and then to his present teaching and research role at Victoria University of Wellington. His interests include Southern Hemisphere climate variability (such as the El Niño/La Niña cycle and the mid-latitude westerly winds) and the impacts of climate variability and change on New Zealand.[2]

He also works in climate-sea ice interaction.[3]

Renwick was a Lead Author for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth[4] and Fifth[5] Assessment Reports, as well as a Co-ordinating Lead Author for the IPCC's Sixth Assessment Report.[6]

He communicates climate science in the context of art through an initiative called Track Zero.[9][10]
