Bio

I am a physical oceanographer interested in the role of the oceans in climate and climate change.  I teach undergraduate and graduate level introductory physical oceanography and help with the undergraduate marine science summer field course.  Students in my group conduct their research in exiting regions of the ocean using a combination of cutting-edge observations from autonomous ocean gliders, shipboard measurements, and high-resolution models that realistically simulate the small-scale turbulence of the ocean.
