Andy Woods

Andy Woods is a Professor at the University of Cambridge, affiliated with the Department of Earth Sciences. His work spans fluid mechanics of the environment, focusing on critical energy transition challenges.

• Geothermal power and thermal energy storage
• Hydrogen and carbon storage in aquifers
• Ocean mixing and plastic dispersal
• Volcanic eruption dynamics
• Climate-adaptive energy systems

Recent publications emphasize CO2 sequestration, subsurface energy storage, and volcanic plume modeling. His research combines theoretical and experimental approaches to address environmental fluid dynamics in natural and engineered systems. Collaborative projects include the Cambridge NERC Doctoral Landscape Awards and partnerships with institutions like the British Antarctic Survey.
