ABOUT ME
Hello! I am an oceanographer-glaciologist now based (way up north in Scotland!) at the School of GeoSciences and The University of Edinburgh.
My PhD background is in large scale glacier modelling focused on ocean-glacier interaction. I worked developing the calving parametrisation for the Open Global Glacier Model written in Python.
Now as NERC Independent Research Fellow and part of the Cryosphere group, I will be working on an exciting new multidisciplinary project to develop an improved ice dynamics model for tidewater glaciers in Antarctica. This model will simulate projections of ice volume and meltwater contributions from Antarctic peripheral glaciers and ice caps (see projects tab.).
I am also an alumni of ArcTrain, and before I was part of the master program MER: Erasmus Mundus MSci. Marine Environment and Resources.
But originally I am from El Salvador, Central America. The land of the sun!
So... how did I end up in the UK and studying the cryosphere!? well... with lots of motivation and for more info. Check out my projects tab.
