Research Interests

Development of novel sensors and techniques to study the freshwater cycle over the ocean and how transport and variability in the southern Indian Ocean affects the large-scale circulation.

  • Rain detection and measurement via underwater acoustics
  • Rain\'s effect on altimetry and the estimation of rain from spaceborne instrumentation
  • Rossby wave propagation observed in sea surface height and temperature
  • Variability in the Agulhas Current (as revealed by altimetry, SST, drifters and models)
  • Factors affecting biological productivity in the southern Indian Ocean
  • PODs (Pop-up Ocean Drifters)
