معرفی
Michelle Staudinger is an Associate Professor at the School of Marine Sciences, University of Maine. Her work focuses on addressing global change impacts on marine ecosystems, particularly through interdisciplinary approaches to fisheries management and conservation. She leads the Staudinger Lab, emphasizing inclusive science and collaboration with stakeholders for sustainable resource management.
Education:
- Ph.D. in Marine Science & Technology, UMass Amherst (2010)
- M.S. in Marine & Atmospheric Science, Stony Brook University (2004)
- B.S. in Marine Biology & Environmental Science, Boston University (1997)
Research Interests: She investigates climate-driven shifts in species distribution, trophic relationships, and forage fish ecology. Her lab integrates statistical models, fieldwork, and partnerships to inform adaptive management strategies. Key themes include:
- Climate change phenology and its effects on ecosystems
- Forage fish roles in supporting predator species
- Co-production of science with diverse stakeholders
Articles Trends: Recent work emphasizes phenological shifts in marine species, climate vulnerability assessments, and the ecological roles of forage fish. Studies often bridge empirical data with policy-relevant insights for coastal and offshore ecosystems.
Labs/Teams: The Staudinger Lab prioritizes equity and accessibility in science, fostering an inclusive environment. Projects span from intertidal zones to the deep sea, addressing food webs, biodiversity, and climate adaptation strategies.
