About this website
My name is Stephen Griffies and this website summarizes my research,
teaching, and mentoring activities in areas related to ocean fluid
mechanics, ocean circulation, and climate dynamics. As of May 2025, I
retired from the NOAA Geophysical
Fluid Dynamics Laboratory in Princeton. I remain active as part of
the Atmospheric and Oceanic
Sciences Program at Princeton University. As of 1 Feb 2026, I will
be part of the
LOCEAN team in Paris working on topics related to ocean physics
and ocean modeling.
You are invited to explore this website for an overview of my
activities and for opportunities to work with me as a graduate
student, postdoc, or visiting research scientist. In particular, I
seek PhD students with an extremely strong training in theoretical
physics and applied mathematics as achieved during undergraduate
and/or masters studies.
