Key research

My research focus is environmental fluid mechanics, in particular the interaction between physical and biological systems in natural aquatic environments. Specific interests include:

· Internal waves

· Whitecapping surface waves

· Benthic–pelagic coupling

· Plume dispersion

· Oceanographic measurement methods
