Research Interests
I am interested in the interactions between physics and nutrient cycling in the world oceans and Great Lakes.
I am particularly interested in understanding the mechanisms controlling variability in the ocean carbon sink and Great Lakes carbon cycling.
I am also interested in the impact of climate variability and change on Great Lakes water supplies and fisheries.
To explore these topics, I modify and utilize numerical models.
