Neil Malan

I’m a physical oceanographer at the University of New South Wales, having spent the last 5 years working on how the dynamics of the ocean and atmosphere influence the continental shelf waters off the east coast of Australia. I also have research interests in ocean observing systems, marine extremes, shelf-deep ocean connections and biophysical coupling.

Born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa, I completed my PhD on the dynamics of the Agulhas Current off the east coast of Southern Africa, before moving to Australia for my postdoctoral work.
