Please join us for our April Virtual Club meeting. The meeting is at 7pm on Wednesday, April 28.
We will talk about upcoming dives and general club news. For April we have Fiorenza Micheli. She is with the Hopkins Marine Station and will talk to us about her research into the climatic impacts of marine ecosystems.
Fiorenza Micheli is co-director of Stanford’s Center for Ocean Solutions, and a marine ecologist at the
Hopkins Marine Station of Stanford University, where she is the David and Lucile Packard Professor of Marine Science. Micheli’s research focuses on the processes shaping marine communities and coastal social-ecological systems, and incorporating this understanding in marine management and conservation. She investigates climatic impacts on marine ecosystems, particularly the impacts of hypoxia and ocean acidification on marine species, communities and fisheries, marine predators’ ecology and trophic cascades, the dynamics and sustainability of small-scale fisheries, and the design and function of Marine Protected Areas. Her current research takes her to Mexico, Italy, and Palau, in addition to California. She is a Pew Fellow in Marine Conservation, a fellow of the California Academy of Sciences, research advisor to the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, Seafood Watch and the Benioff Ocean Initiative, and senior fellow at Stanford’s Woods Institute for the Environment.
