Lachlan Astfalck

Lachlan Astfalck is a Research Fellow at the University of Western Australia's School of Physics, Mathematics and Computing, working on the TIDE ARC ITRH project. He specializes in statistical methodologies for oceanography, hydrodynamics, and paleoclimate modeling.

His research focuses on spectral analysis, uncertainty quantification, and developing statistical methods for environmental applications. He holds a PhD (2019) and Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering (2014) from the University of Western Australia.

Dr. Astfalck's publications demonstrate a strong focus on developing novel statistical approaches for environmental systems. His recent work spans spectral analysis techniques, ocean turbulence modeling, ice sheet reconstruction, and Bayesian methods for climate applications. He actively develops open-source statistical tools and maintains several GitHub repositories related to spectral estimation methods.

He is accepting PhD students in statistics and oceanography and has capacity for research collaborations.
