Brooke Weigel
Assistant Professor Of Oceans, Hopkins Marine Station
Dr. 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.
