Jade Sauvé is a PhD candidate in Oceanography at the University of Washington, having obtained her Master of Oceanography in December 2021. Her research investigates how carbon is transferred between the atmosphere and the ocean, and between the surface ocean and the deep ocean. Using a new method that she developed, Jade is working with both data from autonomous instruments as well as models of the Earth system to understand seasonal variations in Southern Ocean carbon.

Before her graduate studies, she completed an undergraduate degree in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at McGill University in 2018. In her free time, Jade enjoys exploring the Pacific Northwest’s amazing outdoor opportunities, different from her native Québec, as well as baking and practicing Tai Chi.
