I am looking for PhD students to start in Fall 2025, especially those interested in modeling wave- or flow-topography interactions. Please click for more information.
I will start as an Assistant Professor in Physical Oceanography at the University of Connecticut on January 1st, 2025. My research focuses on oceanic processes driven by interactions with topography, including dense overflows, flow hydraulics, internal waves, and turbulent mixing, as well as their impacts on Earth’s climate. My lab at UConn, the Ocean Dynamics and Climate Lab, aims to use a combination of theoretical approaches, numerical models, and in-situ observations to (1) improve the fundamental understanding of multi-scale topographic effects in stratified ocean flows and (2) assess how the ocean changes under climate change, providing geophysical insights to help evaluate and mitigate climate-related risks.
