Research interest

• Vortex dynamics:

I am fascinated by the dynamics of vortex structures in the presence of vertical inhomogeneity.

In particular I am interested in the evolution of vortices under sea ice, convective dipoles, and I would be curious to study the vertical motion and fluxes within an eddy.

• Turbulence in convection :

How does turbulent kinetic energy evolve in a convective plume and in the mixing layer ?

• The organisation of convection :

In this part I am interested in the coherent structures that can be observed in convection (plumes, cones, cells, convective vortices) and how these structures are affected by the different convection regimes.
