Summary
Timothy Williams is a researcher with over two decades of applied mathematics and geophysical modelling experience, holding a PhD from the University of Otago and a long-standing research appointment at the Nansen Environmental and Remote Sensing Center. His expertise spans analytical and numerical solutions of linear PDEs applied to wave–ice interactions and practical development of sea-ice models (notably neXtSIM), with additional experience in HYCOM and WaveWatch III. He brings many years of scientific programming across Python, C++, Fortran, MATLAB and shell scripting, enabling him to translate theory into robust simulation code. Based in Bergen, he blends deep theoretical insight with hands-on model development and interdisciplinary collaboration across oceanographic and cryospheric communities.
12 years of coding experience
