a nested suite of ocean-ecosystem models and a website that displayed results to users. Clare completed her PhD in ocean modelling, at Plymouth University, in 2008. She set up a POLCOMS model of the Rockall Bank region and used this to investigate formation and cascading of dense water. Clare has a BSc in Oceanography with Maths from the University of Southampton.
