Current Projects

• Hydrography and Circulation on the west side of the Antarctic Peninsula.
• Circulation, sea ice and nutrient processes in the Ross Sea. A focus is the effect of meso-scale ocean processes on the distribution of iron and its effect on primary production.
• Circulation in the Southern Ocean with a coupled ocean/sea-ice/atmosphere/land model to analyze the influence of the ocean on melting of Antarctic ice shelves.
• Individual based models of genetics for oysters including gene transfer between sub-populations
• Biological and economic model of harvesting of surf clams in the northern Middle Atlantic Bight.
• Growth, Disease, Reproduction and Harvesting of Oysters (C. virginica and C. gigas).
• Growth, Disease, Reproduction and Harvesting of Clams (Mercenaria sp., Ruditapes sp., Spisula sp.)
