Hi this is Yao!
I am a Schmidt AI in Science Postdoctoral Fellow at UCSD, working with David Sandwell. I received my Ph.D. in Earth Sciences from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in June 2023. My current research focuses on understanding the ocean-seafloor interaction, including deep ocean mixing over abyssal hills and regional ocean circulation over seamounts. David Sandwell and I update and publish SWOT marine gravity models. We are developing bathyemtry models for general use and ocean mixing studies. Stay tuned!
Our recent work on marine gravity using SWOT ocean data is published on Science!
