Brooke Weigel
Assistant Professor of Oceans
BioDr. Brooke Weigel is a marine ecologist. Her research focuses on the ecological and physiological responses of primary producers and microbial communities to global climate change, and the consequences of those changes for marine ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles. She is particularly interested in the feedbacks between climate change, kelp forests, microbes & carbon cycling in the ocean. Her research uses a variety of tools and methods, including field and laboratory experiments, genomics, bioinformatics, algal culturing, ecophysiology, and biogeochemistry to improve our understanding of the impacts of climate change on nearshore marine ecosystems. The Weigel Lab is part of the Oceans Department, within the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability. The lab is based at Hopkins Marine Station in Pacific Grove, CA.

Earle Wilson
Assistant Professor of Earth System Science, by courtesy, of Geophysics, of Oceans and Center Fellow, by courtesy, at the Woods Institute for the Environment
BioEarle Wilson is an assistant professor in the Department of Earth System Science. He is a physical oceanographer who studies ocean dynamics at high latitudes and their far-reaching impacts on the global climate. He is particularly interested in the circulation of the Southern Ocean and its interactions with the cryosphere (i.e., sea ice and marine-terminating glaciers). Dr. Wilson and his group explore these research questions using various tools and methods, ranging from in situ ocean observations and idealized numerical models.
