Welcome to my Home on the Internet.
On these pages I am attempting to keep current items of both personal and
professional interest. While I am always changing the information and links
on my Web site, I would appreciate knowing of any errors you find or problems
you have while surfing through here. You will find full contact details
for me at the bottom of this page.
I have worked at the Halibut Commission
since February 1995. For two years, I worked predominantly on issues related
to the bycatch
of halibut in non-directed fisheries. In January
1997, I began conducting research on interdecadal
variability in halibut biology. This work closely
relates to research I undertook as part of my Ph.
D. at the University of Washington.

By the way, in case you were wondering about the background
image I use for this page. It is comprised of two world maps. The upper
map shows sea surface temperature conditions during a positive phase of
an ocean-atmosphere phenomenon called the Pacific Decadal Oscillation ("PDO",
which I am credited for naming). The bottom map shows conditions during
a positive phase of the well known El Nino Southern Oscillation ("ENSO").
You can read about the relationship between these two oscillations in a
(not so) recently published paper:
