Originally from Manchester in the UK, Harriet is currently studying for a Masters degree in Geophysics at Imperial College London. During her visit she will be working with David Ferreira, John Marshall and Sara Seager focussing on how a planet being tidally-locked (i.e. face-locked) to its Sun affects its atmosphere and ocean circulation. You can find Harriet in 54-1523. Her email is h_lau08@mit.edu. She will be here through August.
