Lynne Talley is a physical oceanographer with interests in large-scale ocean circulation and its interaction with climate and with biogeochemistry. She has participated in bringing a network of circumpolar BGC profiling floats to the Southern Ocean over the past 10 years, and associated research to understand how the 3-dimensional circulation, heat and freshwater forcing, and various ocean processes affect ocean uptake of heat and carbon.
