Oceanum Team
30 years experience in science leadership and ocean enterprise, building an extensive portfolio of applied science outcomes. He has designed and led numerous oceanographic measurement campaigns, metocean design projects, and modelling studies.
Oceanographer with over 20 years experience in applied research and operational forecasting. He has led the development of national wave forecasting systems for both the Australian Bureau of Meteorology and the Meteorological Service of New Zealand. Tom has extensive experience combining modern technological approaches with state-of-the-art science to produce agile and flexible modelling systems.
20+ years of expertise in nearshore wave modelling and coastal processes. At the Meteorological Service of New Zealand, he managed oceanographic hindcasting databases and contributed to the development of coastal wave forecasting systems. He has produced numerous multi-decadal wave hindcasts and continues to develop open-source tools that bridge science and technology.
Gradually evolved from an oceanographer into a data systems architect and engineer. With Oceanumio, he is applying over 20 years experience in applied numerical modelling, data analysis and visualisation to creating better tools and systems to facilitate environmental research, workflows and operations.
