Collaborating research institutes, centres and groups

Environmental Change and Sustainability

We carry out geospatial analysis and experimentation to understand environmental change and potential solutions.

Physical Oceanography

The research group explores patterns of change and variability in satellite and in-situ measurements of surface temperature, sea level and productivity.

Nature-Based Ocean Solutions

We aim to address societal, economic, environmental and engineering challenges through effective nature-based ocean solutions.
