AboutAmanda’s research centers on the study of patterns of air-sea CO2 exchange in open ocean environments in order to better understand natural variability and long-term trends in ocean carbon. Specifically, she is interested in using interdisciplinary approaches to explore how physical and biological mechanisms drive variations in ocean carbon chemistry across time and space. She received her Masters of Science in 2010 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences. Since 2011 she has been working as a researcher in the McKinley group, first at the University of Wisconsin and now at Columbia University at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. She works remotely from her home in Montana.

While her primary research involves statistical analysis on large datasets, she also enjoys getting out from behind the computer and participating on research cruises or other lab projects. She has participated on 3 GO-SHIP cruises (P16N, I09N, I07) acting as both a CTD-watchstander and LADCP operator.
In her free time Amanda enjoys traveling, hiking, scuba diving, swimming, and cooking. She currently lives in Montana with her husband, son, and dog and enjoys getting outside as much as possible.
