Vicky Martí Barclay

University of Strathclyde (2023-2027)

Topic: “AI-Based Approaches for Ocean Forecast and Development of Ensemble Ocean Climate Data”

Bio: my background is in oceanography and marine renewable energy. Before coming to Strathclyde, I was a researcher in ocean renewable energy at Bangor University for nearly 3 years. I love being in (and on) the ocean doing water sports but out of season you’ll mostly find me in the forest doing orienteering. Webpage
