Shane Keating is an Associate Professor at the School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of New South Wales. His research focuses on the use of powerful mathematical tools to measure, model, and understand ocean circulation and its impact on Earth's climate and biosphere. The complexities associated with ocean circulation, dominated by turbulent vortices and jets, present significant challenges for numerical models and require effective measurement and modeling strategies. Shane's specific interests include the quantification of turbulent mixing in geophysical flows, data assimilation for ocean state estimation, and satellite remote sensing. Prior to his current role, he served as a Senior Lecturer and has extensive experience as an Assistant Research Scientist and Postdoctoral Researcher at New York University. His academic journey includes a Ph.D. in Physics from the University of California, San Diego, and a B.A. in Theoretical Physics from Trinity College Dublin. Shane is also keen on mentoring students interested in Mathematical Oceanography and works on several related projects, including fractal geometry in ocean dynamics and stochastic parameterization methods for climate models.
