Experimental Oceanography

Experimental Oceanography

Institute of Oceanography

The Experimental Oceanography group aims to advance our understanding of ocean dynamics and circulation in a changing climate. We are a seagoing group, specialising in physical oceanographic measurements and using approaches that leverage traditional observations with new platforms and satellite data. Using a range of observational platforms enables us to address problems spanning scales (from micro- to large-scale), and spanning spheres (from the ocean to biogeosphere, cryosphere and atmosphere). We are driven by scientific curiosity, and motivated by problems with the potential to address societal needs.

The Experimental Oceanography working group is led by Prof. Eleanor Frajka-Williams.

CLICCSII Cluster of Excellence funded

The CLICCS2 Hamburg Cluster of Excellence was approved for funding by the DFG. News here including further links. The Experimental Oceanography group will be contributing most strongly in the “Natural Dynamics” theme of the project, to investigate how small scale processes influence the large-scale ocean circulation.
