Bio

Dr. Noel Gutierrez Brizuela is a physical oceanographer working to understand the Earth's largest energy flows by looking at small details in the ocean circulation. Currently a Group Leader at the Climate Dynamics Department of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, Noel combines theory, observations, and computer simulations to to see how small-scale ocean physics influence global climate variability. He holds a Physics degree from Universidad de Guadalajara, a PhD from the University of California San Diego, and was later a postdoctoral researcher at Columbia University.
