Dr. Mingmin Shao is a Postdoctoral Associate at the Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS) of the University of Miami and at the Physical Oceanography Division of NOAA/AOML. His primary interests are exploring multiscale air-sea interactions and upper ocean dynamics by making and analyzing field observations and conducting numerical experiments. The work involves conducting shipboard measurements with multiple instruments and analyzing the data with a variety of supporting datasets from satellites, numerical simulations, and reanalysis products.

Current Work
