Hi, I am
Akash Somasekharan (He/Him)
(AKASH S)
Researcher | Part-Time Freelance Data Analyst
Oceanography | Climate change
With over 5 years of expertise in ocean-atmosphere-climate change research, my strengths lie in scientific programming, analytical skills, and atmospheric-oceanographic data management. I bring valuable experience in scientific cruise data collection, CTD, RBR, and other hydrography instruments. Proficient in Big Data management (NetCDF, ASCII/DAT, CSV, etc) and skilled in FERRET, Linux Shell, R, and Python. Additionally, my background includes significant ocean modeling and remote sensing experience. Strong interpersonal skills complement my analytical proficiency.
