Joe graduated from the University of Cambridge in 2020 with a bachelor's in Mathematics (first class) and an MMATH. He began his DPhil in the Atmospheric, Oceanic and Planetary Physics department in 2020 funded by NERC through the Doctoral Training Partnership in Environmental Research.

Joe's research is focused on multiphase flows in reactive porous media. Joe uses both theoretical and numerical techniques to investigate the impact of a gas phase on the physics of mushy layers. The project is motivated by observations of gas bubble nucleation and transport in sea ice. The presence of these gases impacts the local polar biogeochemistry and atmospheric chemistry.
