My research is associated to the collaborative project TRR181 "Energy Transfers in atmosphere and ocean" (https://www.trr-energytransfers.de/).
I am currently working on ocean surface layer energetics, and I am mostly interested in small-scale turbulence and energy budgets of the surface mixed layer. I am working with observations from gliders.
