WHAT I DO
My primary research goal is to understand the physical processes that determine circulation in the coastal ocean. My students and I are currently involved in both the construction and testing of models and the development of observational techniques. I am also interested in fundamental geophysical and environmental fluid dynamics and the application of mathematical and statistical methods to the development of models of biogeochemical processes.

Since 2004 I have coordinated the development and operation of the Long Island Sound Integrated Coastal Observing System (LISICOS). This system combines an observational network, a data system, models, and analyses to understand and predict processes in Long Island Sound.
