Graduate Research

The lab welcomes applicants to the UConn Oceanography M.S. and Ph.D. programs, particularly those with backgrounds in engineering, physics, mathematics, computer science, and related quantitative disciplines. Prior experience in oceanography is not required.

Prospective students are encouraged to contact me to discuss potential research opportunities before applying.

Research Topics

Current research topics in the group include:

  • Air-sea interaction
  • Surface wave dynamics and wave breaking
  • Upper-ocean turbulence and mixing
  • Wave-current interactions
  • Remote sensing using visible imagery, infrared imagery, and lidar
  • Computer vision and image analysis
  • Scientific computing and numerical modeling
  • Air-sea gas exchange
  • Field observations and instrumentation
