My PhD research concerns the spreading of 'stuff' in the ocean (for example carbon, nutrients, or plastic) in the ocean using Lagrangian particle models. I also research how (and to what extent) we can backtrack the origins of 'stuff' in chaotic ocean flows, and am interested in dispersion parameterizations.

I work at the Institute for Marine and Atmospheric research Utrecht (IMAU) in the Lagrangian Ocean Analysis group. My research is part of the NWO-funded project "Backward Lagrangian Tracking of the Patchiness of Oceanic Nutrients in a Turbulent Ocean".

Science communication is important to me, and I participate(d) in several outreach initiatives, such as KlimaatHelpdesk.org.
