1. What was your area of study (Atmospheric or Oceanic sciences)? Could you describe in a line or two your research/ area of interest while you were studying at Â鶹AV?

Oceanic sciences. My research was on ocean circulation and its response to climate change. More precisely, I investigated the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation representation and its response to a CO2 increase in a climate model suite in which models vary only by their ocean horizontal resolution.
