Clint Reyes joins Seo Lab @ UHM for summer 2025!
Excited to work with Clint Reyes, a graduate student in the Department of Ocean and Resources Engineering at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa (SOEST/UHM). In the summer of 2025, he will be working with Hyodae Seo and Cesar Sauvage to investigate nearshore wave dynamics around the Okinawa Islands during Super Typhoon Khanun (2023) using numerical model simulations. His research interests at ORE/SOEST include coastal engineering, coral reef hydrodynamics, and marine renewable energy. Find out more about him here.
Hyodae Seo
Associate Professor
Dr. Hyodae Seo is an Associate Professor in the Department of Oceanography and an Associate Director of the Uehiro Center for the Advancement of Oceanography (UC•AO). He is a physical oceanographer and climate scientist with a broad range of research and teaching interests in ocean and atmospheric processes and their coupled interactions relating to weather and climate. He combines high-resolution coupled modeling with theories of geophysical fluid dynamics and analyses of in situ and satellite observations to better understand the ocean-atmosphere coupled boundary layer processes, improve their representation in numerical models, and evaluate their influence on ocean, weather, and climate. Dr. Seo actively contributes to developing sustaining and sustainable ocean observing strategies and strives to engage the public around the issues related to ocean, extreme weather, climate, and ocean-based renewable energy research.
