Biography

I’m a SENSE Earth Observation CDT PhD student with the aim to use the integration of satellite SSS data with in-situ and reanalysis SSS and measurements of other freshwater processes (precipitation, sea ice freshwater flux and river run-off) to:

  • Demonstrate the value and potential of applying satellite SSS data to Arctic based process studies
  • Compare and contrast the processes controlling the interannual variability of summer salinity, temperature and sea ice variability and their interactions in the Laptev and Kara Sea and in the Vilkitsky Strait
  • Identify the dominant controls on Eurasian-wide interannual variability and assess implications of these on sea ice persistence and Arctic-wide freshwater storage
  • Infer implications for freshwater transport in the context of climate change

 

PhD project title: Arctic Ocean Circulation and Freshwater Transport in the Eurasian Shelf Seas: Satellite Sea Surface Salinity to Climate-Driven Variability
