Overview

My research reflects my interests and training in fluid dynamics, remote sensing data and computation I work on numerical modelling, in addition to data-driven approaches, including deep learning, that maintain the fidelity of the physical system.

I am highly motivated by problems related to climate change. Examples of current projects include modelling stratified flows, fusing data from different sensors for multimodal learning, and using deep learning for space/time predictions.

I am open to different application areas and colloaborate with many others in the following groups

The vision and image processing group

The automation and intelligent systems group 

Fluid dynamics group in applied math

The remote sensing of environmental change group

I welcome students across all diversity groups and can adjust projects for various levels, from undergraduate to PhD or Postdoc
