DESCRIPTION:Paul Linden is the chair of the Mechanical and Aer
 ospace Engineering Department at the UCSD Jacobs S
 chool of Engineering\, where he is the Blasker Pro
 fessor of Environmental Science and Engineering. H
 e also is director of UCSD's Environment and Susta
 inability Initiative and a fellow of both the Amer
 ican Physical Society and the Royal Meteorological
  Society. Prior to joining UCSD in 1998\, Linden w
 as a faculty member in the Department of Applied M
 athematics and Theoretical Physics at the Universi
 ty of Cambridge\, where he earned his Ph.D. in 197
 1\n\nProfessor Linden's research has applications 
 in geophysical\, environmental and industrial engi
 neering. The flows encountered in natural and indu
 strial contexts are usually turbulent and have var
 iations in density which produce strong buoyancy f
 orces. Linden's research focuses on the physical p
 rocesses involved to obtain a greater understandin
 g of the underlying principles governing these flo
 ws. He has applied his work in fluid dynamics to e
 nvironmental engineering to create more "energy ef
 ficient" buildings.\n
