Miklós Pál Vincze

senior research fellow

PhD (Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, 2012)

Biography:

Miklos Vincze is practically working in the von Karman Laboratory for Environmental Flows. His research mainly focuses on the experimental modeling of climate-related geophysical flow problems, particularly buoyancy-driven convective and wave phenomena in rotating and stratified media.
