Interests & Research:
As Marine Prediction Leader, I am responsible for leading and conducting research
related to marine prediction for the Australian region. Marine prediction research
at BMRC currently encompasses three major areas: coastal systems, wave modelling
and air-sea interaction.
Coastal systems include storm-surges and tsunamis. The tsunami research
being undertaken in BMRC is contributing to the development of the
Australian Tsunami Warning System. In particular, we are developing the
capacity to provide real-time forecasts of tsunamis using numerical models and
available sea-level observations.
Wave modelling research currently includes further development of the
data assimilation system, wave modelling for shallow water regions and application
of the Optimal Consensus Forecast (OCF) system to wave forecasts.
Air-sea interaction work includes evaluation and enhancement of the surface fluxes from
the Bureau's Numerical Weather Prediction systems. In particular, we are examining
parameterisations of sea-surface roughness in order to develop a two-way coupled
wave-atmosphere system.
