Research Interests
Most research is focused on climate change:
- climate processes in middle and high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere
- impacts of climate change on ecosystems in the Pacific basin (including the Bering Sea) and Arctic
- components of Arctic climate system and their interactions among each other
- assessment of global coupled atmosphere-ocean climate models
- detection and attribution of climate change
Current Research Projects
- BSIERP/BEST (Bering Sea Integrated Ecosystem Research/Bering Ecosystem Study)
- Arctic Change Detection
- Synthesis study of the Bering Sea - EcoFOCI
- Changing Seasonality of the Arctic Ocean (co-PI)
