Scott Doney and Naomi Levine

Scott C. Doney first came to Woods Hole as an undergraduate in the Sea
Education Association “SEA Semester” program and later returned to the
WHOI/MIT Joint graduate program for a Ph.D. After a decade working at
the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, he came back
to WHOI and is a senior scientist in the Marine Chemistry and
Geochemistry Department. Naomi M. Levine did her undergraduate work at
Princeton and joined Doney’s lab as a Ph.D. student in 2004 after working
for a year as a research fellow for the nonprofit organization
Environmental Defense. Doney and Levine are both extremely interested in
the crossover between science and policy, particularly in the area of
climate change. In 2005, they headed to Chile for a seven-week research
cruise aboard the Ronald H. Brown. Since then they have continued to
work together on the intersection between ocean physics, chemistry, and
biology, and the global climate.
