I am a physical oceanographer interested in determining what sets the global characteristics of the ocean circulation. theory and modeling. I am a Professor in Physical Oceanography at the University of Gothenburg since 2018. Involved in research activities since 2004, my early work focused on the observation and study of the Southern Ocean. I am in particular involved in the development of animal-borne CTD tags, which are now a major source of data in Polar Oceans. I am also interested in the study of ocean thermodynamics and mixing and how they control the global overturning circulation.
My main research interests:
• Southern Ocean circulation
• Instrumented Elephant Seals gathering hydrographic data (MEOP, AniBOS)
• Ocean modelling (NEMO, MITgcm)
• Climate modelling (EC-Earth)
• Ocean thermodynamics (TEOS-10)
• Global overturning circulation and its drivers
