I'm a research scientist looking at data-driven/ML ocean models. Recent promotion to Dr! Parent to two adorable small humans. No idea what free-time is anymore... but I used to enjoy baking and reading, and one day will return to these hobbies!

‪ 📣 One week left!! 📣 🌊 Call for abstracts #EGU26 !!! Please consider our session: ITS1.9/OS4.1 Machine Learning for Ocean Science meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU26/sessio... Deadline 15 January 2026 @brajard.bsky.social @rachelfurner.bsky.social @redouanelg.bsky.social

A slide showing a blue surface with waves and superposed 0s and 1s on the left, and text describing the session and details for submission: ITS1.9/OS4.1 Machine Learning for Ocean Science https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU26/sessionprogramme/5869# Session abstract: Machine learning (ML) methods have emerged as powerful tools to tackle various challenges in ocean science, encompassing physical oceanography, biogeochemistry, and sea ice research. This session aims to explore the application of ML methods in ocean science, with a focus on advancing our understanding and addressing key challenges in the field. Our objective is to foster discussions, share recent advancements, and explore future directions in the field of ML methods for ocean science. A wide range of machine learning techniques can be considered including supervised learning, unsupervised learning, interpretable techniques, and physics-informed and generative models. The applications to be addressed span both observational and modeling approaches. Observational approaches include for example: - Identifying patterns and features in oceanic fields - Filling observational gaps of in-situ or satellite observations - Inferring unobserved variables or unobserved scales - Automating quality control of data - Modeling approaches can address (but are not restricted to): - Designing new parameterization schemes in ocean models - Emulating partially or completely ocean models - Parameter tuning and model uncertainty The session also welcomes submissions at the interface between modeling and observations, such as data assimilation, data-model fusion, or bias correction. Researchers and practitioners working in the domain of ocean science, as well as those interested in the application of ML methods, are encouraged to attend and participate in this session.

It's about time we start organizing the Liege Colloquium for 2026! Submesocale Processes in the ocean will be the topic, a revisit of the Colloquium of 2016. 10 years of advances! I'll try to document here the journey towards organizing such an event, maybe there's interest? #LiegeOcean26 🌊🧪

In amongst all the chaos of early January and a return to reality, this paper from my PhD got published! We show that a UNet trained to emulate an idealised ocean configuration works brilliantly overall, but very badly near land....

It's been great to see posts about #AGU24 this week. If, like me, you feel you've missed out, there's still time to submit an abstract for #EGU25 in Vienna at the end of April. We're running a session on machine learning for ocean science, send us an abstract if you're working in this area.
