My research interests include ocean model, parallel computing, big data and artificial intelligence. I developed an automatically parallel operator library (OpenArray) for ocean models, a regional ocean model (GOMO) based on general operator, a highly scalable solver (P-CSI) for ocean circulation models and a high-speed input/output library for climate models. These work can improve the computing and simulating efficiency of ocean models remarkably.

I have experience in the field of Agronomy, with an emphasis on Soils and Environment Sciences, mainly working on the following topics: Soil genesis, morphology and classification; soil survey and mapping; assessment of agricultural suitability and land use capacity; soil and water management and conservation; watershed management and conservation. In addition I have experience in pedometry, remote sensing, geoprocessing and photointerpretation applied to soil science, land use planning, analysis of soil-landscape relationships and geomorphology. I am also a member of the Terrantar Center, studying terrestrial ecosystems in Antarctica, linked to the INCT of the Cryosphere. Currently, I contribute to studies characterizing, mapping Antarctic soils, geology, pedogeomorphology, and periglacial processes in Maritime Antarctica using geophysical sensors and modeling (machine learning). I also study the thermal dynamics of permafrost in relation to climate change.

I am an atmospheric scientist who is particularly drawn to the dynamics of moist convective systems and their interactions with the large-scale environment, such as entrainment process, convective sensitivity to environmental perturbations etc. This interaction is key to the precipitation distribution and variability, as well as Earth’s radiation budget, but is poorly comprehended and simulated. As a scientist at NCAR, I am using both high-resolution models and observations to further validate and improve convection representation in CAM7, as well as investigating other highly coupled systems (e.g. land-atmosphere) for next-generation Earth System Models.

Based in the Centre for Atmospheric Science, my research uses computer models and a combination of mathematics, physics and chemistry to understand how tiny atmospheric particles influence our climate and air quality. Testing these models, using a combination of laboratory and field studies, gives us the tools we need to try and resolve how the way we live affects the environment.

Sophie Valcke holds a "highly qualified" research engineer position at CERFACS where she is working on high-resolution atmosphere-ocean-ice coupled modelling. She is leading the team of 4 to 5 engineers developing the OASIS3-MCT coupler, used for climate modelling by about 65 groups around the world. Thanks to her expertise in HPC and code coupling for climate, Dr Valcke participates in different international committees, e.g. the Research and Innovation Advisory Group (RIAG) of EuroHPC JU, the Advisory Board of the ESiWACE3 Centre of Excellence, the organizing committees of the workshops on Coupling Technologies for Earth System Models and the ENES workshops on High-performance computing for Climate and Weather Committee. Dr Valcke was CERFACS Principal Investigator for the EU infrastructure project IS-ENES3 and the ESiWACE2 Centre of Excellence. These projects favour Dr Valcke's interaction with many climate modelling groups in Europe and with other groups internationally developing coupling frameworks.

Dr. Wild's research seeks to better understand, and develop sustainable solutions to, water resources and environmental systems challenges. Rather than studying these challenges in isolation, his work considers water’s dynamic, uncertain, multi‐sector interactions with energy, land, climate, and socioeconomic systems across diverse spatiotemporal scales. His research has spanned planning and management challenges in water resources and environmental systems, food-energy-water systems, and deep decarbonization (i.e., climate change mitigation).
