Jacob Davis

Graduate Student | Civil and Environmental Engineering

I am a PhD student in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and a researcher at the Applied Physics Laboratory. I work on a number of projects related to ocean surface wave observation and wave buoy development. My thesis work is focused on the use of air-deployed wave buoys for hurricane forecast improvements. Outside of research, I have a passion for music—both listening and playing—and also enjoy drawing, cooking, and appreciating the outdoors through activities such as biking, backpacking, and skiing.
