Ocean informatics

I coordinate WHOI’s Ocean Informatics Working Group and serve as WHOI's representative to the Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP). I host Carpentries workshops at WHOI (thus, the logo on my Projects landing page). My technical expertise can be characterized as implementing FAIR data – Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable - for the ocean sciences. I am particularly interested in integrating heterogeneous and distributed data about the marine environment, and providing provenance (i.e., lineage) for the processing involved to produce oceanographic data products.

Current projects

OOI

Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI) project: I serve on the Coastal and Global Scale Nodes (CGSN) Data Team.

iDOOS

My involvement in the AccelNet-Implementation: Implementing a Deep Ocean Observing Strategy (iDOOS) project is mainly for FAIR data training for Deep Ocean Early career Researchers (DOERs).
