Author Information

Marek Stastna is a professor in the mathematics department at the University of Waterloo. His primary research interest is the motion of stratified fluid mechanics, such as lakes, the coastal ocean and the atmosphere. He is part of the Environmental and Geophysical Fluid Mechanics group. He works on the simulation of stratified, natural waters. This includes fundamental work on hydrodynamics instabilities, bottom boundary layers and mixing, as well as more applied work on lake scale circulation. Professor Stastna has been actively involved in the building of several numerical models, using pseudospectral and finite element methodologies. He has published numerous articles and book chapters. Derek Steinmoeller is a Scientist and Senior Software Developer at Aquanty. His main interests lie in numerical solutions of equations of fluid flow in lakes under the effects of rotation, density stratification, and weak vertical accelerations. He is also a full-time senior software developer in a technology hub located in Waterloo region, Canada with more than six years of employment. He has experience in both traditional numerical modelling software, and more modern software architecture and design patterns in monolithic web applications that lay the groundwork for writing robust and maintainable code for any application area. He Developed an open-source suite of mathematical model solvers for a variety of application areas to be run on High-Performance Computing architectures.
