Oceanographic Analysis with R (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781493988426)

Dan E. Kelley is a Professor in the Department of Oceanography at Dalhousie University, which is one of Canada's oldest universities and a national center for research in the fields of ocean science, policy, and law. He teaches at both undergraduate and graduate levels, and has been nominated twice for teaching awards. His research focuses on physical oceanography, in particular the parameterization of small-scale mixing and exchanges associated with convection, double diffusion, internal waves, and frontal instabilities. He also collaborates widely on topics ranging from under-ice algal blooms to the mechanics of whale-ship collisions. A former executive member of the Canadian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society, a long-serving Graduate Coordinator, a university Senator, and the recipient of both the Rosemary Gill Award for outstanding service to students and an NSERC University Research Fellowship, Kelley has published numerous papers in peer-reviewed journals.
