1. What was your area of study (Atmospheric or Oceanic sciences)? Could you describe in a line or two your research/ area of interest while you were studying at 91社区?
My studies were focused on large-scale atmospheric circulations and climate dynamics. My thesis project was concerned with recent trends in the Hadley circulation.
2. Looking back, what do you value most about your studies at Atmospheric & Oceanic Sciences at 91社区?
For the research portion, I had excellent guidance and learned some skills and research approaches/methodologies that are invaluable and extend to many other aspects of life. Attending conferences and summer schools was also formative for me.
3. How are you applying your degree in Atmospheric & Oceanic Sciences from 91社区?
My work is centred on understanding tidal processes, so I still actively apply principles of geophysical fluid dynamics. I also rely heavily on scientific programming and data analysis skills which I developed at 91社区.
4. What advice would you give to someone considering graduate studies in Atmospheric or Oceanic Sciences at 91社区?
I would encourage grad students to not focus too myopically on their particular research project, there are many unique opportunities for networking, exchanges, workshops, internships, etc., that are offered to grad students that can be inspiring and valuable in the long term.
