Why Is Parker MacCready Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Parker MacCready is an American oceanographer. He is a professor at the School of Oceanography at the University of Washington. Early life and education MacCready was born and raised in Southern California to father Paul MacCready, an atmospheric scientist. Growing up in Pasadena, MacCready helped his father design the Bionic Bat and used it to break the world speed record for human-powered flight in 1984. MacCready completed his Bachelor of Science degre in architecture at Yale University and his Master of Science degree in engineering science at the California Institute of Technology. He finished his formal education with his PhD in physical oceanography from the University of Washington . During his PhD, MacCready developed a new theory of the circulation of the deepest layers of the ocean.
