Research topics Baroclinic Transport at Drake Passage (UP) Correlation between biology/CO2 and vertical thermal structure in the Weddell Sea (IAA-LOCEAN-SHN) Mixed Layer variability (SZN-LOCEAN-UP) WDW monitoring, fine thermo(haline) structure near fronts, thermal staircases and diffusive convection in the Weddell Sea (ENEA-SHN-SZN) Meridional eddy heat flux from drifter data through ACC (ENEA) Some of these issues will be / are addressed with the help of 1D and 3D high Resolution Models (LES)
