About me
Research
I am an associate professor in physical oceanography and paleooceanography. My research is focussed around the dynamics of the large scale ocean circulation and its interaction with climate, now and in the past. Current research interests include the dynamics of the inflows and outflows through the Arctic Straits, now and in the past; the state of the deep circulation of the ocean throughout the Cenozoic (last 66 million years); the interaction between fronts, wind, topography and sea-ice in the Southern Ocean; and the role of convection in the meridional overturning circulation. I address these problems using theory and models of various complexity and through collaboration with observationalists and paleoceanographers.
