'’C’est pas l’homme qui prend la mer, c’est la mer qui prend l’homme’’ -Renaud

Explore it to find out more about my research on ocean-atmosphere interactions. These interactions dictate the exchange of momentum, heat and material between the ocean and the atmosphere, playing a crucial role in Earth’s weather and climate.

I am a post doctoral researcher working for France Energies Marines and affiliated to the Laboratory of Physical and Spatial Oceanography (LOPS). Working on the CASSIOWPE project I am developping sea spray parameterizations to include in a coupled ocean-wave-amophere model framework to better characterise the metocean environement in which the Gulf of Lion floating wind farm is going to be deployed.

Previously I worked for the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) at the French Institute for the Explotation of the Sea (IFREMER) in Brest. This was when I first moved to France and joined the LOPS to work on the Copernicus project AMICO: Actions vers une Modélisation Intégrée Côtière Opérationnelle. We are working on high resolution fully coupled ocean-waves-atmosphere modelisations of the coastal enviroment.

My PhD work at the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences (DEES) at Columbia University in the City of New York focused on understanding wave breaking and the effects of near-surface turbulence on the exchange of momentum, heat, and gases with different degrees of solubility.
