 I am a physical oceanographer with a focus on turbulence, mixing, and small- to meso-scale processes in the coastal ocean and in lakes. Presently, my main working areas include a large-scale tracer experiment conducted in Baltic Sea, the dynamics of rotating bottom gravity currents, internal-wave mixing, and boundary mixing processes in stratified basins. In addition to theoretical, observational, and numerical methods used to understand these processes, I have a special interest in the development of marine turbulence models. Have a look at our public domain turbulence toolbox GOTM at www.gotm.net.
