Areas of Interest
I am working on developing in situ instrumentation capable of measuring seawater inherent optical properties (IOPs) from above the water surface, to avoid biofouling and reduce instrument corrosion. I am investigating this possibility using Monte Carlo simulations of light propagation (a stochastic technique - based on the use of random numbers and probability statistics). The theoretical modeling will provide the inversion algorithms used by the new IOP measurement system.
Long-term research interests: Physical Oceanography, Ocean-Atmosphere Interaction, Climate Research, Meteorology
