Alberto Naveira GarabatoProfessor Alberto Naveira Garabato is an oceanographer interested in the processes governing ocean circulation and its role
in climate. His group's research focuses on unravelling the dynamics connecting the breadth of scales of oceanic flow--
rom small-scale turbulence to the basin-scale circulation--through the development and application of new approaches to
measure the ocean. He holds a Chair of Physical Oceanography at the University of Southampton, and is an Honorary Fellow
of the British Antarctic Survey. His work has been recognised with the Outstanding Early Career Scientist Award of the
European Geosciences Union (2008), an Honorary Fellowship of the Challenger Society (2010), a Philip Leverhulme Prize
(2010) and a Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit award (2014). He was the lead proponent of the RoSES programme,
which is assessing the role of the Southern Ocean in the global carbon cycle. He is the founding director of the NEXUSS
Centre of Doctoral Training, which is training 45 PhD students at 10 UK institutions in the use of cutting-edge sensor and
autonomous system technologies for environmental science. Read More Read Less
