معرفی
Catrina Gore is a Researcher affiliated with the School of Environmental Sciences at the University of East Anglia. She is a member of the Centre for Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences. Her work focuses on blue carbon dynamics, particularly in salt marsh ecosystems. She holds a BSc in Biology from the University of York and an MRes in Environment from the same institution.
Her research examines the effectiveness of salt marsh realignment as a nature-based climate solution, investigating carbon sequestration rates, greenhouse gas fluxes, and microbial ecology in both natural and restored marshes. Key interests include understanding how sea-level changes impact carbon storage and developing methodologies for accurate carbon accounting in coastal ecosystems.
Her publications explore topics such as blue carbon accumulation rates, the relationship between sea-level rise and carbon stocks, and the applicability of coastal wetland restoration for climate mitigation. She employs interdisciplinary approaches combining biogeochemistry, microbial ecology, and restoration science to address these challenges.
Though no formal awards are listed, her work contributes to critical discussions about carbon crediting schemes and ecosystem restoration prioritization. Current research includes microcosm experiments to identify microbial groups involved in carbon decomposition, aiming to refine models of carbon dynamics in realigned salt marshes.
