I am a Senior Scientist in the Department of Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI). I returned to WHOI in 2002 following eleven years in the Advanced Study Program (ASP) and Climate and Global Dynamics Division (CGD) at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). I received my Ph.D. from the MIT/Woods Hole Joint Program, working with Bill Jenkins on transient tracer data in the ocean.

News:Ocean Acidification: Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels from fossil fuel burning is lowering surface ocean pH and will severely impact by the end of this century many organisms that build shells from calcium carbonte (e.g., corals, pteropods, coccolithophores). Nature paper: (pdf)
