CR2025_06: Cross-shelf transport processes in a changing climate
*Please note that this PhD will be hosted at the National Oceanography Centre in Liverpool*. Understanding and predicting the exchange of nutrients, heat, and planktonic organisms between the open ocean and the coast is important for human activities. Read more
A dive into tropical waters: understanding the mechanisms of sea surface temperature patterns that drive global climate and weather
Sea surface temperature patterns in tropical oceans influence climate and weather around the globe. The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO, 1, 2) in the Pacific and its teleconnections drive rainfall patterns nearby and far, as well as influences the occurrence of Marine Heat Waves in remote areas.
