I am interested in the coupled interactions between phase change and fluid flow,
including the thermodynamics and fluid dynamics associated with the formation
and evolution of sea ice. A particular aspect of these dynamics is the development
of brine channels, which form the main conduits for the drainage of dense, highly
saline brine from sea ice into the underlying ocean. I have developed mathematical
models of convection in and from sea ice guided by and tested against laboratory
experiments and used to interpret field data, which I am also involved in obtaining.
