Stephanie Dutkiewicz

Research Interests:
Dr. Dutkiewicz's research interests lie at the intersection of the marine ecosystem and the physical and biogeochemical environment. She examines how physics and chemistry of the ocean determines phytoplankton biogeography, and how in turn those organisms affect their environment. She is particularly interested in how the interactions of these components of the earth system will change in a warming world. To advance this research she is involved in developing and using complex numerical models and simple theoretical frameworks, guided by laboratory, field and satellite observations.
