John S. Wettlaufer is a Bateman Professor at Yale University and a Visiting Professor of Mathematics at the University of Oxford. His research spans applied mathematics, physics, geophysics, biophysics, and astrophysics, with a focus on the physics of premelted ice, its geophysical and environmental consequences, and the mechanics of liquid inclusions in compliant solids. He investigates phenomena such as surface tension, contact mechanics, and nonlinear dynamics in soft materials and ice. His work also includes studies on dark matter interactions and the behavior of sea ice as a mushy layer, contributing to understanding natural convection and solidification processes.
