Rsearch interests

My research interests focus on interdisciplinary problems in oceanography, climate dynamics, and paleoclimate, involving interactions between different components of the climate system. Three long-term goals of my research program are: (1) to understand the role of small-scale ocean processes in the large-scale ocean circulation and in climate; (2) to understand past climate variability; and (3) to understand the interactions between the biota and climate.
