Since joining NOAA in 2017, she has served as an editor and author for several international and national climate assessments, worked to develop decadal agency-wide and interagency research strategies, and published peer-reviewed original research on ocean and climate science. Emily earned her PhD in Marine Science from the University of South Carolina in 2016 and a BS in Geology from the College of Charleston in 2012. Her research expertise is in developing paleo-proxies using the fossil record preserved on the seafloor to understand ocean conditions of the past but her scientific interests span a broad range of global change issues.
Dr. Shannon Meseck is a research scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Marine Fisheries Laboratory (NOAA/NMFS) in Milford, CT. Since joining NOAA in 2002, she has served as a research examining environmental effects on marine bivalves. In 2009, she has worked on how ocean acidification affects a variety of marine organisms including phytoplankton, bivalves, and fish. She has worked to develop decadal agency-wide and interagency research strategies, and published peer-reviewed original research on ocean and climate science. Shannon earned her PhD in Oceanography from Old Dominion University in 2002and a BS in Environmental Science/Chemistry from the SUNY Plattsburgh in 1997.
