Curriculum Vitae

Oseanograf med omfattende erfaring med å innhente og analysere havobservasjoner. Jeg jobber også med ny teknologier, spesielt glidere. Mine forskningsinteresser er fokusert på klimaeffekter og fysiske påvirkninger på økosystemet, polare hav, spesielt interaksjonen mellom is og hav og havvarmetransport mot polområdene og havets biogeokjemi. Jeg har også omfattende erfaring i å lede, koordinere og organisere feltarbeid, prosjekter, workshops, kurs og undervisningsaktiviteter.
