   personal_statement: At the beginning of her career at the USGS, Noreen worked
     on subsidence related to fluid withdrawal in coastal Louisiana, then spent several
     years using a scanning electron microscope and trace element chemical data to
     study coral skeletal features including relationships with magnesium, brucite,
     and endolithic algae. From 2007 to present her focus has been on integrating
     bathymetric/topographic elevation time-series data and geophysical subsurface
     chirp data along with sediment from vibracores to study recent and historical
     geomorphological changes of nearshore coastal environments along barrier islands.
