Short BIO
I am an early-career researcher working on predictions of essential variables which help us track the ocean climate and variability.
My main research interests include seasonal forecasting and marine heat waves. I am currently working on seasonal forecast validation and reanalysis comparisons across the global ocean, including the Mediterranean Sea.
Role in AtlantECO
​
Studying physical drivers of climate & ecosystem change using GLOB16: a high-res (1/16), long-term (60 years), and 3D ocean-ice simulation.
​
Starting with MLD, poleward gyre shifts, stratification, then hopefully on to mixing, heat content, 3D horizontal transport, and vertical exchanges/water mass subductions!
​
Understanding improvements in eddy-resolving over eddy-permitting configurations.
