About me
I am a PhD candidate interested in the ocean carbon sink. I combine earth system science with machine learning to investigate the ocean carbon sink. During my PhD, I investigate the impact of pCO2 observations from sailboats on air-sea CO2 flux estimates. I am working under the supervision of Peter Landschützer, Tatiana Ilyina and Jochem Marotzke.
