DONALD SLATER
Postdoctoral Scholar
Climate, Atmospheric Science & Physical Oceanography
I am a postdoctoral researcher at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego, working with Professor Fiamma Straneo. My research centres on understanding the effect of the ocean on the Greenland Ice Sheet, with a view to improving projections of ice sheet mass loss and sea level contribution.
I completed my PhD - titled 'Modeling submarine melt rates at tidewater glaciers in Greenland' - with Professor Pete Nienow at the University of Edinburgh in August 2017. My background is in Mathematics and Physics; I achieved a Distinction in Part III Mathematics from the University of Cambridge in 2012 and a First Class Honours in Mathematics and Physics from the University of Edinburgh in 2011.
