Internal Waves on the Monterey Continental Slope

Abstract

My interests are in oceanic phenomena ranging from the meso- to the microscale that contribute to mixing and stirring, with a focus on their interactions. These include internal waves, potential-vorticity-carrying finestructure, turbulence, double diffusion, bottom topography and surface forcing. Parameterization of the impact of "subgridscale" processes on larger scales. My recent focus has been on understanding how topography interacts with the meso- and finescale flow fields in the surrounding ocean.
