Research

Danny is an expert on the fundamental study of physical processes in the cryosphere using continuum mechanics and thermodynamics. Most of his research focusses on these processes as applied to sea ice. He has devised new mathematical models of these processes, and developed physically-based parameterisations suitable for implementation into climate models. Scalability, homogenisation, isotropy, and continuity are frequently occurring issues. This work combines the development of new theory with numerical simulations and laboratory experiments, and utilises field measurements and remotely-sensed observations. These model developments provide fresh insights into broad scientific questions, such as: When and how will the Arctic Ocean become ice free? How will change in the sea ice cover affect spin up of the Arctic Ocean? How can we predict sea ice skilfully on seasonal and shorter timescales?

Teaching

Danny has taught courses in glaciology, climate physics, and physical oceanography. He currently teaches a graduate course on geophysical fluid dynamics:

MTMW11/MTMW97 Fluid dynamics of the Atmosphere and Oceans

Brief Biography

Danny earned a BSc. in Physics from Durham University in 1993. He worked for the UK Ministry of Defence as an Operational Analyst, before winning a scholarship in 1995 to study for a Ph.D. in Fluid Dynamics and Thermodynamics of Sea Ice, awarded in 1998 from Cambridge University. His PhD primarily involved mushy layer theory, perturbation methods, and stability analyses.

Danny joined University College London as an Academic Fellow in Climate Physics in 1999, being promoted to Lecturer in 2002, and to Reader in Polar Oceanography in 2005. Danny joined the University of Reading as Professor in Climate Physics in 2012.

Research Group in Sea ice and Polar Oceanography

Danny leads a research group in polar oceanography, with a strong focus on sea ice. He is also the lead for sea ice in CPOM.

Sea ice is an important component of the global climate, e.g. it strongly impacts atmosphere-ocean heat fluxes, greatly increases the Earth’s albedo and contributes to thermohaline forcing of the ocean. Sea ice is also a sensitive indicator of climate change: there have been well-publicised, strong reductions in Arctic summer sea ice extent in the past decades.

The observed reduction in the Arctic sea ice cover has implications for climate, trade, wildlife, society, and oil exploration. Measuring, understanding, and predicting changes in sea ice and the polar oceans requires a broad range of expertise and is essentially interdisciplinary. Much of Danny’s research, although quite specialised, is collaborative and contributes to broader-themed research projects.

Existing regional and climate models do a rather poor job of simulating the evolution of sea ice, underestimating the decrease in the Arctic and predicting a strong decrease in the Southern Ocean, which has not been observed (although there have been some dramatic losses in recent years).

While the causes of poor climate sea ice simulations can be obscure, the thrust of much of Danny’s research is to improve the fidelity of physical models of sea ice in regional and climate models. It can be shown that uncertainty in the sea ice physics alone can be responsible for poor sea ice simulations.

Danny’s group comprises a number of postdoctoral research staff and PhD students (typically with strong backgrounds in physical science and/or mathematics) and most of its research falls into the following areas:

Sea ice thermodynamics - including mushy layer theory, ice-ocean interface dynamics, consolidation of rafted ice, freezing and melting/dissolving, melt pond formation and spreading and impact on albedo and Arctic mass balance, climate model parameterisation development;

Sea ice rheology - homogenisation, anisotropy mechanics, climate model parameterisation development, experimental determination of the relationship between sea ice rheology and friction (a little dated now, but for a review of some of these topics see Danny’s 2008 Ann. Rev. Fluid. Mech. review paper);

Sea ice dynamics - including topographic form drag, edge jets and kinetic granular flows in the Marginal Ice Zone, discrete element modelling of floe aggregate formation, floe size distribution modelling;

Interaction of ice with the polar ocean - including frazil ice formation and mixed layer properties, mixed layer evolution in Antarctic continental shelves, salinity-driven deep water formation, ice shelf-ocean interaction and marine ice deposition, numerical simulation of density-driven flows; and

Use of new observations and new physics to improve the realism and accuracy of sea ice in climate models - use of satellite and field observations, data assimilation, implementation of new physics parameterisations, sensitivity and feedback studies, "pull through" from fundamental process studies to climate models via the developmental CPOM sea ice model.
