Dr Benoit Pasquier

Back to

I specialised in pure mathematics at École Polytechnique, in mathematical finance at Paris-Dauphine and ENSAE, and applied mathematics and computational oceanography at the UNSW School of Mathematics and Statistics, where I did my PhD. I then held postdoctoral appointments at the University of California Irvine (UCI), the University of Southern California (USC), the UNSW School of Maths, the CSIRO, and the Climate Change Research Centre.

My research lies at the interface between oceanography, biology, geology, chemistry, and computational science. I build, run, and diagnose idealized numerical models of the ocean to study the ocean transport of tracers such as carbon, oxygen, and nutrients. I am particularly interested in how these cycles will respond to climate change and about the impacts this will have down the road for life in the ocean and our economy.
