Geophysical Fluid Dynamics

July 8, 2018

Each summer since 1959, a select group of graduate students comes to WHOI to study with leading oceanographers, physicists, and mathematicians in the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Program. The field focuses on the fundamental physics and motions of fluids, which apply to oceanography, meteorology, astrophysics, hydrodynamics and a host of other fields. Fellowship recipients in the 2018 GFD program are: (top, from left) Tyler Lutz (Yale), Rohit Supekar (MIT), Andrea Lehn (MIT), and Neeraja Bhamidipati (Cambridge) and (bottom, from left) Thomas Le Reun (Aix Marseille Université), Christopher Howland (Cambridge), Sara Lenzi (Turin), Edward Hinton (Cambridge), Laura Cope (Cambridge), Bowen Zhao (Yale), and Sutirtha Sengupta (UC Santa Cruz).
