   abstract: Rebecca is an aquatic ecologist and conducts research primarily on cyanobacteria
     harmful algal blooms (HABs) in freshwater ecosystems of New York and nationally.
     She began working at the USGS New York Water Science Center in 2023. She has
     previously worked in a variety of ecosystems, from urban to rural, aquatic and
     terrestrial. She currently leads numerous collaborative projects that address
     several aspects of science related to HABs. The projects span a range of disciplines
     from methods development, algal community composition, fate and transport of
     cyanotoxins, monitoring program development and more. The goal of the HABs work
     at NYWSC is in part to develop tools to inform management decisions and improve
     our understanding  of the impacts of HABs on the environment.
