DESCRIPTION:Reconstructing the decadal ocean/climate variability from trans
 ient tracer observations\n\n \n\nThe penetration of anthropogenic transien
 t tracers\, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and sulfur-hexafluoride (SF
 6)\, into the oceans represents an opportunity to trace intermediate-to-ab
 yssal water masses as they leave the surface mixed layer and estimate the 
 ventilation rate of the global ocean since 1940. I will present analyses b
 ased on four decades of CFCs and SF6 observations to reconstruct global tr
 acer budgets and infer decadal variability of deep ocean circulation and t
 racer ventilation rates. I will also provide an overview of my research\, 
 describing how data-driven and computational methods can enhance extractio
 n of information from invaluable yet sparse observations and inform our un
 derstanding of the large-scale ocean dynamics and their regulatory roles i
 n the climate system. Examples include the control of Southern Ocean turbu
 lent mixing on global ocean biochemistry and the carbon cycle\, the impact
  of deep turbulence in the Atlantic Ocean on heat uptake and pole-to-pole 
 transfer of anthropogenic heat\, and an AI-based reconstruction of water m
 asses and circulation in the Atlantic Ocean.  I will finish with an overvi
 ew of the current state and prospects of tracer observations in the contex
 t of studying climate variability.
