Meredith Meyer

Meredith Meyer is a Senior Research Associate in the School of Environmental Sciences at the University of East Anglia. Her research focuses on oceanographic processes in polar regions, particularly the Southern Ocean and Ross Sea.

Dr. Meyer's research centers on biogeochemical dynamics in Antarctic marine ecosystems. She investigates the interactions between biological and physical processes that drive oxygen budgets and phytoplankton blooms in the Southern Ocean. Her work employs field observations and data analysis to address critical uncertainties in production-export relationships and climate impacts.

Her recent publications highlight emerging phenomena in the Ross Sea, including unprecedented summer phytoplankton blooms and critical uncoupling between biogeochemical stocks and rates. These studies contribute to understanding climate change impacts on polar oceans and the role of biological versus physical drivers in ecosystem dynamics.

Dr. Meyer leads the Horizon Europe-funded project BiPhySO, which aims to combat critical uncertainties in biological versus physical drivers of future oxygen budgets in the Southern Ocean. There is no information available on her advising of students in the provided text.

She collaborates extensively within an international team studying the Southern Ocean, including researchers from the British Antarctic Survey and other institutions, utilizing data from platforms such as Seagliders.
