Kyle Armour
Postdoc Work Email: karmour@mit.eduKyle’s primary research interests are climate dynamics, including sea ice, the general circulation of the atmosphere and oceans, and global climate change. His recent work has focused on Arctic sea ice loss, atmospheric feedbacks and climate sensitivity, and the role of the ocean in setting the timescales and geographic patterns of climate variability and change.
Jean-Michel Campin
Research Scientist Work Email: jmc@ocean.mit.eduJean-Michel is interested in the role of the ocean in past climate variations using numerical models. Development and improvement of climate model components, especially Ocean General Circulation Model, with a particular interest in numerical methods.
Darren Engwirda
Postdoc Personal Email: d_engwirda@outlook.comDarren’s interest is in developing ocean models for climate research.
Brian Green
Graduate Student Work Email: brianmg@mit.eduBrian’s my major interests lie in ocean dynamics, their role in climate, and the use of numerical techniques to model them.
Ute Hausmann
Postdoc Work Email: uh07@imperial.ac.ukUte is interested in the roles of the ocean and of ocean-atmosphere interactions in the climate system. Most recently, her PhD research addressed the observed contribution of ocean mesoscale eddies to sea surface temperature variability and mixed-layer heat transport.
Yavor Kostov
Graduate Student Work Email: yavor@mit.eduYavor is interested in developing simple climate models.
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.
Anastasia Romanou
Research Scientist Work Email: anastasia.romanou@nasa.govAnastasia, a collaborator from GISS, is interested in the large-scale circulation of the oceans, gas-exchange through the air-sea interface, the ocean carbon cycle, climate variability, thermohaline circulation and coupled ocean-atmosphere modeling.
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.
Hajoon Song
Postdoc Work Email: hajsong@mit.eduHajoon studies climate change and its impacts on marine ecosystem, physical and biological interactions and air-sea interactions. He is also interested in data assimilation of coupled physical-biological oceanic system and adjoint-based sensitivity analysis.
Genevieve Wanucha
Science Writer Work Email: genevieve.wanucha@gmail.comGenevieve (MIT, SM. ’09) is the science writer for Oceans at MIT, where she reports on ocean and climate-related research unfolding at MIT and WHOI. She welcomes story comments and ideas from students, research scientists, and professors.
