Sci-Cafe: Using models to discover hydrodynamic and ecological responses to climate variability in Apalachicola Bay and beyond

September 26 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Dr. Steven Morey is the Distinguished Research Scientist for the NOAA Center for Coastal and Marine Ecosystems and a Professor in the Florida A&M University School of the Environment will discuss his research using models to discover hydrodynamic and ecological responses to climate variability in Apalachicola Bay and beyond. Dr. Morey earned his Ph.D. in oceanography from Florida State University and, prior to joining the faculty at FAMU, was a Senior Research Scientist at the FSU Center for Ocean-Atmospheric Prediction Studies. He is a physical oceanographer with expertise in hydrodynamic modeling, coastal processes, and impacts of circulation and environmental variability on marine ecosystems. Dr. Morey’s current research includes modeling of Apalachicola Bay hydrodynamic and ecological response to freshwater flow variability, assessing and improving models for Gulf of Mexico circulation, and applications of satellite wind measurements to coastal oceanography.
