Research Interests

  • Shelf seas dynamics and effect of tides on the water mass transformation, flow patterns and freshwater pathways.

  • Control of ocean circulation, stratification and carbonate chemistry on the climate response to carbon emissions and warming trajectory.

  • Carbon cycle and climate feedback mechanisms opearting in the climate system; e.g., Ocean acidification due to ocean uptake of anthropogenic carbon further amplifying warming through a reduction in the the ocean ability to absorb carbon from the atmosphere.

  • Climate change impact in shelf seas: emergence of environmental stressors for marine ecosystems such as though climate-change induced trends and extreme events in temperature, pH, oxygen and nutrients availability

  • Shelf seas, opean ocean and climate modelling.

  • Statistical methods for analysing and reconstructing observations of the Earth system and their assimilation into numerical models.
