'The sea, the great unifier, is man's only hope.
Now, as never before, the old phrase has a literal
meaning: we are all in the same boat.'

I am an Oceanographer in the Climate Dynamics and Prediction Group here at the Geophysical Fluids Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL). My work is centered around development of and investigation with general circulation models. I was previously a Research Scientist with Princeton University and prior to that a UCAR Visiting Scientist at GFDL.

Currently working on:

- Prototyping and running next generation GFDL High Resolution Climate Models on DOE supercomputers
- Ocean data assimilation experiment

- Ocean color & ENSO variability

- Ocean color & Cyclogenesis
- Flavors of ENSO: Is MOM's recipe GOLDen?
- Incorporate Near-Real-time ocean color data into our data assimilation system. Will it improve our prediction skill?
