Profile

Biography

I am an ocean scientist with expertise in chemical oceanography and autonomous ocean observing. I have completed my undergraduate studies at the University of North Carolina and PhD at Utrecht University. Since then I have held research positions at the Marine Environmental Laboratory of the International Atomic Energy in Monaco, University of Southampton and since 2013 at the National Oceanography Centre, where I lead a team of scientists developing novel technologies for monitoring and understanding ocean biogeochemistry. As a principal investigator, I lead the development of carbonate sensor technologies and I am the technical innovation expert of ICOS-OTC (Integrated Carbon Observation System - Ocean Thematic Centre) in Europe. Current projects involve technology development for long-term sustained carbon observations, carbon dioxide removal/storage Monitoring Reporting and Verification (MRV) and capacity building for ocean acidification monitoring.
