My research focus is on continental shelf processes of òòò½´«Ã½â€™s marginal seas through analysis of observational data and both idealized and realistic numerical model results. Ongoing studies include participation in NSF's Northern Gulf of òòò½´«Ã½ Long Term Ecological Research program, ocean climate monitoring at hydrographic station GAK1 at the mouth of Resurrection Bay, holistic physics-to-whales ecosystem studies across the Pacific Arctic, and oceanographic studies in Southeast òòò½´«Ã½ fjords. These investigations inform climate assessments, fisheries management decisions, and oil spill response planning efforts. I seek improved mechanistic understandings of the controls that modulate the circulation, temperature, and salinity fields of òòò½´«Ã½-region marine waters.
