Biography

Paul Myers is a physical oceanographer with a keen interest in the ocean's role in climate, both in the past and present. His research emphasizes the significant role of the ocean within the global climate system and its importance as a provider of resources from fisheries and undersea floor materials. His studies leverage ocean observational data and focus on numerical model development and simulation. His regional studies primarily target high latitude oceans adjacent to Canada, including the Labrador Sea and the sub-polar North Atlantic. Additionally, he models the Canadian Arctic Northwest Passage and the North Pacific Mediterranean. He actively seeks graduate students to explore various research opportunities, such as the role of freshwater in high-latitude oceans, regional ocean modeling of the Labrador Sea, and paleoceanography among other areas.
