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. In addition to kelp forests, Dr. Weigel has also studied snow algae in alpine ecosystems, microbial symbiosis in marine invertebrates, and nutrient cycling in freshwater streams.

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.
