Research Statement
I am a physical oceanographer interested in the physics and statistics of coastal and regional sea level variability and change. My research makes combined use of instrumental observations, proxy records, numerical simulations, and theoretical models. My recent work focuses on understanding how regional sea level is related to large-scale ocean circulation as well as reconstructing the history of past coastal sea level change.
