Research Group
Faye Elgart
Graduate Student Work Email: fmhe@mit.eduFaye is interested in the dynamics of complex systems spanning multiple length- and time-scales, and the intersection of glaciology, oceanography, and planetary science.
Qian Li
Postdoctoral Associate Personal Email: qian_li@mit.eduMy research interests include the circulation and dynamics of the Southern Ocean, i.e., ocean-ice interactions around the Antarctic margin, Antarctic Circumpolar Current dynamics, mixed layer dynamics and tropical-extratropical teleconnections.
John Marshall
Professor of Oceanography Work Email: jmarsh@mit.eduJohn is interested in the general circulation of the atmosphere and oceans, and particularly the role of the ocean in climate and its variability.
Ali Ramadhan
Graduate Student Work Email: alir@mit.eduAli is interested in scientific computing, software development, and ocean, atmosphere, and climate modeling. He is currently working on Oceananigans.jl, a high-performance and user-friendly Navier-Stokes solver that runs on CPUs and GPUs.
Jeffrey Scott
Research Scientist Work Email: jscott@mit.eduJeff is interested in understanding the role of the ocean in global change change, using a hierarchy of ocean-only and coupled earth system models. Recent work has focused on passive heat uptake versus active ocean circulation changes in a warming world.
Phillip Tuckman
Graduate Student Work Email: ptuckman@mit.eduPJ is interested in any problems that might help us predict the future of the climate system. He is especially excited by how subsystems such as the oceans, atmosphere, and cryosphere affect the global climate.
Yixiao Zhang
Graduate StudentYixiao is interested in using knowledge of fluid dynamics to help us understand the climate of the Earth and other planets and moons.
