Principal
Areas of Interest
Physical Oceanography marine turbulence, internal waves, patchiness,
double diffusion, and interleaving; air-sea interaction and structure
of the near-surface boundary layer; mesoscale eddies, jets, and
fronts; topography related mixing in coastal and deep oceans;
Approach: field measurements, data analysis, theoretical interpretation
and numerical modeling.
