About
My background is rooted in physics and climate sciences. Now, I am conducting my PhD research as part of the ROVER project in the Physical Oceanography group of GFI. I am focusing specifically on the dynamics of the East Greenland Current by using observational data and high-resolution models.
Selected projects
Resilient northern overturning in a warming climate
In ROVER the researchers will observe the deep-water formation along east Greenland, both through a winter expedition on an icebreaker, using mooring across the Greenland slope, and autonomous underwater gliders. The measurement campaign will provide groundbreaking data, cruical for the understanding of the processes that supply cold, deep water to the lower limb of the AMOC.
