Dr. Aike Beckmann (retired) is a physical oceanographer by training and has worked for more than 30 years in the areas of ocean and sea ice modelling at various research institutions, both nationally and internationally. He has authored and co-authored 62 peer-reviewed publications in international journals and encyclopedias. His areas of expertise cover numerous aspects of the marine hydrosphere (ocean circulation, waves, water masses from local to global scales) and cryosphere (sea ice, ice shelves, coupling to atmosphere and ocean), and more recently, the marine biosphere (models of ecosystem dynamics and biogeochemical cycling). His main method of investigation is numerical modelling. Moreover, he has been involved in university teaching of about 20 years, giving numerous lectures, seminars and exercises on physical oceanography, hydrodynamics, sea ice, numeral modelling and dynamics of aquatic ecosystems.
