My name is Ata Suanda. I am a Coastal Physical Oceanographer and I study the ocean processes that deliver or alter water properties next to the world’s coastlines. I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics and Physical Oceanography at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. This is my research blog and website. Please contact me if you find something interesting.

Our group completed the 6th TEALSHIPS cruise! It never ceases to amaze how much a ship with dedicated crew and science party can accomplish in 3 days. A special shoutout on this one for our partners at the Fishing Vessel Observing Network for lending the Mangopare sensor attached to the fish trawl and the Lagrangian … Continue reading TEALSHIPS 6 wrapped!
Over the last year and half or so Sarah Murphy has worked with our group on many, many projects. Always with a smile and a can-do attitude, she has filled in on instrument prep- and break-down, wave flume activities, a TEAL-SHIPS cruise, and model-data analysis. Leaning into her specialty, she took the lead on our … Continue reading Thank you, Sarah!
The 2026 AGU Annual Meeting is 7–11 December 2026 in San Francisco. I am co-convening a coastal oceanography session with Dr. Alexander Kurapov and Dr. Jianping Gan. Consider submitting an abstract to OS016: Coastal Ocean and Shelf Sea Dynamics! Coastal ocean processes mediate the exchange of momentum, buoyancy, and tracers between the land-sea interface and … Continue reading AGU 2026 Abstract submissions open!
