Principal Investigator
Andrey Proshutinsky
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, Massachusetts
The Principal Investigator of the Investigation of Sea Level Rise in the Arctic project is Dr. Andrey Proshutinsky, who is a Senior Scientist in WHOI's Physical Oceanography Department. Proshutinsky has more than 25 years of experience studying the Arctic Seas, and has produced numerous publications concerning the regional oceanography and meteorology, climate change, numerical modeling of ice and water dynamics, Arctic ocean tides and storm surges, and Northern Sea Route climatology and navigation conditions. He will be responsible for overall program coordination, sea level modeling and and observational and simulated data analyses. This also includes organization of the workshops and collaborations with the international research team. In addition, Andrey will be specifically responsible for analyzing, interpreting, and publishing the sea level data analyses results.
