How ocean whirls affect climate
09 Nov. 2023
The WHIRLS project is led by a team of international scientists, including Sabrina Speich, a researcher at the Dynamic Meteorology Laboratory (LMD*). Its aim is to study the influence of small-scale processes in the ocean, such as whirls, on climate and marine biodiversity. It is funded by a Synergy grant from the European Research Council (ERC).
The WHIRLS project is led by Sabrina Speich of the École normale supérieure de Paris and researcher at the LMD, Arne Biastoch of GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel (Germany), Sebastiaan Swart of the University of Gothenburg (Sweden) and Sarah Fawcett of the University of Cape Town (South Africa).
