Why Is John Woods Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Professor John David Woods, CBE is a British oceanographer. He studied physics at Imperial College, London , after which he was appointed principal research fellow at the Meteorological Office , while leading the RN Operation Thermocline in which he pioneered underwater flow visualisation. Later he joined NERC as Director of Marine and Atmospheric Science , where he created the National Oceanography Centre at Southampton. He held professorships at Southampton University , Kiel University and Imperial College London , carrying out research into the seasonal boundary layer of the ocean and plankton ecosystem models, and modelling global container freight.
