Physical Oceanographer (Adjoint Modelling)
I am an oceanographer specialising in mode water formation and export, air-sea gas exchange, and dynamics. I am currently using a suite of ocean adjoint models to investigate the sensitivity of ocean heat and carbon sequestration to surface forcing.
Ocean circulation and dynamics
Mode and intermediate water formation and export
Air-sea gas exchange
Adjoint ocean modelling
Geographic focus: Southern Ocean, North Atlantic Ocean
