CMJ graduated from the University of Southampton in 2007 with a First Class Honours, Master of Oceanography degree (MOcean). Throughout the 4 year course CMJ studied a range of Physical Oceanography modules, including large scale oceanography, shelf edge systems, sediment dynamics, climate change and satellite oceanography, as well as undertaking practical fieldwork and data acquisition. CMJ's final research project investigated the mechanisms of deep water formation in the Arctic via diapycnal mixing and the potential effects of climate change on these mixing processes.
As a Metocean Advisor with PhysE Limited CMJ is currently involved with the quality control and analysis of Metocean data from offshore platforms in the North Sea as well as provision of Metocean criteria to support design and operational work for a range of offshore installations around the world. Other research with PhysE includes investigation into the probability of joint occurrences of peak tide, wave and surge events with important implications to calculation of deck elevations of the next generation of offshore structures.
