Postdoctoral Research Assistant
Data Assimilation

Research interests

My field of interest is the development of novel data assimilation algorithms to exploit the discontinous Galerkin numerical core of the new neXtSIM_DG sea ice model and ways to deal with the non-Gaussianity of the errors in such a model.
