In 2019, Haoguo began work on a new project to develop storm surge forecasts for western Alaska, which includes implementing, testing, and verifying a sea ice model for this region. CIGLR’s Lindsay Fitzpatrick (left) and Haoguo Hu (right). Photo Credit: Aubrey Lashaway.

I configure and develop ice-ocean-ecosystem models, and mainly focusing on sea ice-ocean dynamics and physical-biological interaction. My recent projects are mainly on Sea Ice-Ocean Models and Physical-Biological models in the Great Lakes, the Bering Sea, and the Arctic Ocean. The most used models are the Princeton Ocean Model, the FVCOM, and a self-developed 3D physical-biological model.
Research Interest/Area of Expertise:
- Ice Modeling
- Physical and Biological Interactions
