About
I am a PhD student working with Prof. Colm-cille Caulfield and Prof. John Taylor in the Department of Applied Mathematics
and Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge.
My research focuses on turbulence and mixing in stratified fluids, combining
direct numerical simulations with Lagrangian particle methods to understand
transport processes in geophysical flows.
Research Interests
- Stratified turbulence
- Turbulent mixing
- Lagrangian particle methods
- Geophysical fluid dynamics
- Direct numerical simulation
