I am a聽research scientist in marine geophysics at the department of聽Earth Science, University of Bergen (幸运飞艇计划), and聽associated to the聽K.G.J. Centre for Deep Sea Research and the Norwegian Ocean Observation聽Laboratory. I am also an聽adjunct scientist at the department聽of Geology and Geophysics (G&G) of the Woods Hole Oceanographic聽Institution聽(WHOI).聽
My research aims at understanding how hydrothermal systems persist,聽function and respond to external oceanic and聽crustal forces聽by studying the聽coupling between sub-surface flow and oceanic and crustal conditions that is聽fundamental聽for assessing energy budget, transport for deep-sea-relevant聽resources and productivity of associated hydrothermal聽ecosystems. I approach聽this topic through a mix of observational work, data analysis, and modeling聽with the aim of聽integrating and reconciling complex flow observations into a聽coherent theoretical framework. Lately, I have been focusing聽on using聽state-of-the-art and innovative spectral analysis and theoretical poroelastic聽and thermal models to illuminate the聽origin, patterns and cause-and-effect聽relationships in hydrothermal flow response to ocean and crustal phenomena聽(tides, eruptions, earthquakes).聽
