Dr Amanda E Bates is Lecturer within Ocean and Earth Science, National Oceanography Centre Southampton at the University of Southampton. Her research focusses on marine systems from the poles to hydrothermal vents to investigate how environmental variability influences the ability of animals to cope with temperature stress.
Dr. Antonio Mannino, research oceanographer of the Ocean Ecology Laboratory at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center since 2002, is currently Deputy Project Scientist for Oceans on NASA’s PACE mission. He was previously a Mendenhall Postdoctoral Fellow research chemist at the U.S. Geological Survey. Dr. Mannino began his graduate work at the University of Texas (UT; … Continued
Melissa Omand is an Oceanographer with broad interdisciplinary interests. She applies her training in physics and physical oceanography to examine biogeochemical and ecological processes throughout the upper ocean and twilight zone. She is captivated by the challenges of making observations in a vast, and often harsh, ocean environment, and thrives upon designing or combining sensors, … Continued
Dr. Jeremy Werdell is a satellite oceanographer from NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) in Greenbelt, Maryland. At GSFC, Jeremy also serves as the Project Scientist for the Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) mission to be launched in late 2022. Jeremy grew up in Vernon, Connecticut. He received his Bachelors of Arts in Biology … Continued
Dr. Dan Carlson is an observational physical oceanographer with interests in ocean transport and mixing. Dr. Carlson received his M.S. in Physical Oceanography at Florida State University in March 2007 and then traveled to the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel on a Fulbright Grant. After the Fulbright, Dr. Carlson returned to Israel to study … Continued
Aimee Neeley, a biological oceanographer, is member of the Field Support Group within the Ocean Ecology Laboratory at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Her group is responsible for ground-truthing data products from ocean color satellites through the collection of biogeochemical samples and optical profiles during field campaigns. Her research focuses include understanding phytoplankton physiology and … Continued
Zrinka Ljubešić is a biological oceanographer with research interest in taxonomy and ecology of marine phytoplankton. Her group specializes in taxonomy of marine diatoms, picoeukaryotes and cyanobacteria. More recently her lab focused research on detection of specific phytoplankton groups/species that could serve as bio-tracers of specific water masses and on developing and optimizing methods of … Continued
Ivona Cetinić is a phytoplankton ecologist, who uses optical tools to shed light on the role that phytoplankton diversity plays in oceanic biogeochemical cycles. She likes submesoscale processes, ocean observing technology (in-situ and remote), pretty silicoflagellates and good olive oil. She got her PhD at University of Southern California, and after a postdoc and research … Continued
