Physical Oceanography, UW School of Oceanography
Mark J. Warner, Research Assistant Professor.
Education:
1981 - B.S., Oceanography (Chemical) - Fla. Institute of Technology
1988 - Ph.D., Oceanography (Marine Chemistry) - Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UCSD , Advisor: Dr. Ray F. Weiss
Research Interests:
I am interested in the application of dissolved anthropogenic atmospheric chlorofluorocarbons to the study of ocean ventilation and mixing processes. I have been involved in WOCE, the World Ocean Circulation Experiment, in the Pacific, Indian, and Southern Oceans. I have also participated in studies of the Seas of Okhotsk and Japan aboard a Russian research vessel, and of deep water formation areas along the Adelie Coast of Antarctica with Australian colleagues.
