Melissa is a California-based marine scientist, her research investigates coastal climate change impacts and solutions. Some key areas include:

Ocean Acidification: Where is the U.S. West coast most vulnerable to impacts from ocean acidification?

Blue Carbon: How do aquatic vegetative habitats such as seagrass meadows, kelp forests, and salt marshes absorb and store carbon, and what role do they play in regional and global climate change mitigation?

Coastal Policy and Management: Ensuring the persistence of coastal communities and economies in a rapidly changing environment.
