Nans Bujan

Lead Instructor

PhD in Coastal Oceanography, Montpellier University, France, 2009

Nans is a physical oceanographer interested in the management and dynamics of coastal systems. His focus is on waves and currents near the beach, using a mix of field investigation and numerical modeling. He settled in Asia, and later Taiwan where he currently resides, after a canoeing journey along the Mekong River. He is presently working on internal waves, morphodynamics, and the impact of extreme typhoon-generated waves on the shores of Taiwan. Nans has led our French Polynesia Program since Summer 2022.
