In my PhD, I studied the present and future drivers of Arctic sea-ice variability using a combination of observations and earth system models. Currently, I'm using Lagrangian modelling to understand the mechanisms of Atlantic Water transformation and its impact on the Arctic overturning circulation, the northernmost terminus of the AMOC.
