Education and career edit
Woodgate has a B.A. from the University of Cambridge (1990) and a Ph.D. from the University of Oxford (1994).[1] Following her Ph.D., she was a postdoctoral researcher at the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research.[2] In 1999, she moved to the University of Washington[2] and, as of 2022, she is a professor at the University of Washington.[1]
Research edit
Woodgate's early research centered on data assimilation in models[3] and currents near Greenland.[4] She has examined physical properties of the water masses in the Arctic Ocean, and the movement of the water masses in the region.[5][6] Her research also focuses on the flow of freshwater through the Bering Strait[7] and the changes in the water flowing through the Bering Strait over time.[8][9] Woodgate's research also informs understanding of the role of freshwater in the Arctic,[10][11] and the interactions between the Arctic Ocean and sea ice in the region.[12][13] Her research uses moored instruments to observe conditions in the Arctic Ocean.[14][15]
