Sabique Langodan, PhD

​Dr. Langodan's research focuses on modelling and understanding ocean processes in the Red Sea, especially those related to ocean waves. He is currently investigating the variability and trends of wind and waves in the Red Sea, and their relationship to the climate processes.
