Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJacob Steinberg is a Research Physical Scientist and physical oceanographer with nine years of experience using observations and high-resolution models to diagnose ocean circulation, mesoscale eddy structure, and drivers of coastal sea level variability. Based at NOAA GFDL after a postdoc at WHOI and a PhD from the University of Washington, he blends theory, global and regional numerical simulation, and remote sensing to improve interpretation of surface measurements and how energy penetrates the deep ocean. His work supports state-of-the-science ocean modeling and practical coastal resilience by translating complex dynamics into actionable insights for communities living near shore. He brings field experience, teaching across levels, and a strong visualization practice to make ocean-climate science accessible, and is especially interested in how surface altimetry can reveal interior dynamics.
