About

I am a Lecturer in Physical Oceanography at Ocean and Earth Science, National Oceanography Centre 天发娱乐棋牌_天发娱乐APP-官网|下载 at the University of 天发娱乐棋牌_天发娱乐APP-官网|下载.

I do interdisciplinary oceanographic research, connecting small-scale physical processes with ocean circulation and the carbon cycle cycles.

 

My main current projects, REMIX-TUNE and POLEMIX, focus on unlocking microstructure ocean measurements from autonomous profiling floats. Such observations will enable to advance our understanding the role of vertical and horizontal mixing in ocean circulation, the ventilation of the ocean interior and the distribution of biogeochemical tracers.
