Dr. Malin Ödalen

Working Group Leader
Ödalen

Malin Ödalen is an ocean/climate modeller working on understanding the ocean's role in the climate system, in past, present and future climates. She is a co-leader of the Earth System Dynamics Group and her work spans both physical and biogeochemical oceanography, using a range of different numerical models. 

Specific research interests:

  • Southern Ocean circulation and carbon, and effects of Antarctic meltwater
  • The glacial ocean
    • The role of the ocean and sea ice in Dansgaard-Oeschger cycles
    • The interplay between ocean circulation and the carbon cycle in glacial-interglacial cycles
  • The ocean in the Planetary Bounderies framework
  • Effects of increased ocean model resolution
  • Model development and model intercomparisons
