Jamie is an ocean and atmospheric scientist with interests that exploit satellite Earth observation, in situ observations and models to study land, water and atmosphere environments and interactions. This includes studying atmosphere-ocean exchange of climatically important gases, carbon accounting, bacterial, biological, viral and chemical water quality and land-water continuum interactions. Jamie's work has covered novel in situ monitoring methods to support aquaculture, through to global analyses of carbon to support policy and the design of satellites for the European Space Agency.
