Join the OCB Scientific Steering Committee

Posted by mmaheigan 
· Wednesday, September 30th, 2020 

OCB is seeking nominations for new Scientific Steering Committee (SSC) members. The following SSC members are scheduled to rotate off at the end of 2020:

  • Andrea Fassbender (MBARI) – marine biogeochemical cycling, the ocean’s role in global climate through the carbon cycle
  • Matt Long (NCAR) – biogeochemical and climate modeling
  • Amy Maas (BIOS) – physiology, distribution, and RNA sequencing of zooplankton, genetic response of pteropods to ocean acidification, carbon flux, circadian rhythms, diel vertical migration
  • Clare Reimers (OSU) – coastal and deep-sea benthic biogeochemistry, eddy covariance and microsensor profiling, redox processes and microbial metabolic pathways linking O2, C, N and S cycles

Please submit your nominations by November 13, 2020 with the following information about your nominee:

  1. Name, affiliation, and email address
  2. Expertise as it pertains to OCB
  3. Abbreviated CV (2-page limit – NSF biosketch format is ideal)
  4. A few words speaking to the nominee’s capacity to contribute to OCB leadership, science planning, and implementation

Self-nominations are welcome! OCB SSC members serve a term of 3 years. For more information on the OCB SSC, including a list of current and previous SSC members, the SSC charge and terms of reference, and links to the past year of SSC minutes, please visit the  SSC page of the OCB website.
