I am a Post-Doctoral Researcher in the Neuer lab. I was born in Madrid (Spain) and lived there for 20 years. I moved to the Canary Islands to obtain my Marine Sciences degree at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.. After I received my university degree I was working as a fishery observer in Newfoundland and the Barents Sea on board Spanish trawlers. During summer 1995, I returned to the Canary Islands and started to work in the Instituto Canario de Ciencias Marinas (ICCM) where I was involved in the monthly sampling program at the European Time-Series station ESTOC and in other sea going projects. I was in charge of the sampling and analysis of data, as well as the CTD and XBT data processing. The work of my PhD thesis focused on water mass studies, mainly modal waters and its variability in the eastern part of the North Atlantic Ocean. I completed my PhD in physical oceanography in May 2003 with the title "Agua Central Noratlántica. Modos y variabilidad en el Atlántico centro oriental (ESTOC)" (Variability and Origin of the Water Masses in the Central Western Atlantic (ESTOC)). I joined Neuer’s group at ASU in January 2005. Together with Peer I am working on the NASA funded project "Analysis of nutrient budgets and carbon export in the eastern and western subtropical North Atlantic Ocean". At the present, I am working on a 10 year (1994 to 2003) comparison of the biogeochemistry and hydrography of the oceanic time series stations BATS in the western subtropical Atlantic and ESTOC in the eastern subtropical North Atlantic.
