Dimitrii is a postgraduate researcher in the Polar Oceans team at BAS and School of Environmental Sciences at the University of East Anglia. During his undergraduate he completed an integrated Master’s in natural sciences covering a range of scientific disciplines before focusing in on physical oceanographic processes in the Galapagos.
His current research investigates the possible impacts of sea-ice thickening climate interventions on the biogeochemical processes of Arctic sea-ice. The project is part of the larger Eco-ICE project and is funded by ARIA. This involves both laboratory experiments and modelling using NEMO-MEDUSA. The primary supervisor for this project is Prof Kate Hendry.
Eco-ICE studies whether making Arctic sea ice thicker could harm ocean life and creates tools to help decision-makers work out if climate projects are safe.
