Biography
Elizabeth is interested in the marine carbon cycle and distinguishing between natural variability and anthropogenic change. She has worked on carbon chemistry and ocean acidification across many environments from the North Atlantic, to the Arctic, to the Southern Ocean. Her work is based on observations, laboratory analyses, and increasingly, on autonomous sensors deployed on moorings. Current projects include a moored CO2-system observatory on the continental shelf of the West Antarctic Peninsula, collaborations with colleagues working with the Southern Ocean Time Series Facility, and an ongoing interest in the changing biogeochemistry of the East Antarctic coastal region.
