Research highlight

My work is focused on numerical methods for geophysical fluids, with a focus on developing methods that allow these problems to be solved more efficiently. Currently, I am working on applying tensor networks to geophysical fluids problems on the sphere with the long-term goal of accelerating models at the climate-scale.
