I am studying fundamental isotope effects relevant to oxygen cycling in the oceans.

These isotope effects include those due to gas exchange, respiration, and transport. The patterns of rare-isotope abundances in the ocean tell us about the mechanisms that control their budget. I am currently using a 2-D model to explain the oxygen isotopologue variations observed in the deep Northeast Pacific ocean.
