Glenn Carter

Glenn Carter leads impactful research in the field of physical oceanography at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa, where he serves as an Associate Professor. His work is primarily focused on understanding the complex dynamics of ocean mixing, particularly through the study of tidal and internal tides. With a keen interest in the microstructures that influence these processes, Glenn's research aims to unravel the intricacies of how energy is transferred and dissipated in the ocean. In addition to his work on tides, Glenn is deeply engaged in exploring the physical oceanography of the hadal zone, the deepest part of the ocean. His investigations in this area seek to shed light on the unique environmental conditions and processes that occur at these extreme depths. Through his research, Glenn contributes to a broader understanding of oceanic systems, which is crucial for addressing global challenges such as climate change and marine ecosystem sustainability. His dedication to advancing knowledge in oceanography is reflected in his numerous publications and collaborations with fellow researchers worldwide.
