Lynn “Nick” Shay

Dr. Shay’s research interests include: upper ocean response and coupled atmosphere-ocean interactions, coastal ocean circulation processes, surface wave current interactions and atmospheric and oceanic boundary layer interactions. These phenomena are studies largely from experimental and empirical perspectives using measurements from aircraft, satellite, buoy and land based radar (i.e. Wellen Radar).

Dr. Shay served as the Co-Chief Editor for the AMS Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology-Oceans, and is currently an associate editor. He is on the Editorial Board of Elsevier’s Dynamics of Atmosphere and Ocean Journal and served as a NOAA Cooperative Institute of Marine and Atmospheric Science Fellow from 2004–2010. Dr. Shay was elected a Fellow of the American Meteorological Society in 2012.
