Gundersen is Scientist Emeritus at the U.S. Geological Survey,\ \ having spent 34 years there as a research scientist, program manager, and\ \ senior executive before retiring in 2013. The first half of her career focused\ \ on conducting and managing research projects in geochemistry, ore deposits,\ \ and interdisciplinary studies of radionuclides in rocks, soils, and water;\ \ eventually assessing the geologic radon potential of the United States. She\ \ received numerous grants from DOE, EPA, and NSF and worked with diverse partners\ \ in the health and geological science communities. During 1995-98, she served\ \ as program manager for both the Energy Resources and Mineral Resources Programs.\ \ As the only geologist on the National Academies of Sciences Committee on\ \ Risk Assessment of Exposure to Radon in Drinking Water from 1997-1999, she\ \ contributed to the first multimedia risk assessment for exposure to radon\ \ in water. In 1998, she became a federal senior executive and the Associate\ \ Chief Geologist for Operations. In 2001, she was appointed Chief Scientist\ \ for Geology overseeing $260M in research programs encompassing the Earthquakes,\ \ Volcanoes, Landslides, Coastal and Marine Geology, National Geologic Mapping,\ \ Energy and Mineral Resources, and Global Climate Change programs. She served\ \ in that capacity for 10 years before becoming the first Director of the Office\ \ of Science Quality and Integrity where she established and directed scientific\ \ integrity, ethics, education, career development, publication quality, research\ \ excellence, and other programs across the USGS. She has co-authored or led\ \ the development of scientific integrity policies for USGS (2007), Department\ \ of Interior (2011), American Geosciences Institute (2015), and the American\ \ Geophysical Union (2012 and 2017). She recently served on the Geological Society\ \ of America Ad Hoc Committee on Ethics. She is editor and an author of the\ \ bookScientific Integrity and Ethics in the Geosciences(2017). She served\ \ on the National Academies of Science Committee on the Impacts of Sexual Harassment\ \ in Academia whose reportSexual Harassment of Women: Climate, Culture, and\ \ Consequenceswas released in June 2018. Her academic background includes undergraduate\ \ and graduate work in structural geology and geochemistry at Stony Brook University\ \ and at the University of Colorado, Boulder. She received the DOI Superior,\ \ Meritorious, and Distinguished Service Awards, the Unit of Excellence Award\ \ and the Secretary of the Interior\u2019s Bronze Executive Leadership Award.\ \ She is a Fellow of the Geological Society of America and was also honored\ \ with GSA\u2019s Outstanding Contributions to Geoinformatics award. She has\ \ published numerous papers and presented hundreds of lectures in the fields\ \ of geology, geoinformatics, science management, scientific integrity, and\ \ ethics." additionalType: personal statement email: lgundersen@usgs.gov hasCredential: [] hasOccupation: - '@type': OrganizationalRole affiliatedOrganization: '@type': Organization name: Florence Bascom Geoscience Center url: https://www.usgs.gov/centers/florence-bascom-geoscience-center roleName: Scientist Emeritus startDate: '2024-05-12T15:17:05.381688' - '@type': Occupation additionalType: self-claimed professional experience name: Updating the American Geophysical Union Scientific Integrity and Professional Ethics Policy (2017) - '@type': Occupation additionalType: self-claimed professional experience name: Geochemistry of the Reading Prong and Origin of FE-REE-U Deposits (ongoing) identifier: - '@type': PropertyValue propertyID: GeoKB value: https://geokb.wikibase.cloud/entity/Q46465 jobTitle: Scientist Emeritus knowsAbout: - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: erosion - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: fracture (geologic) - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: folding (geologic) - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: geochemistry - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: tectonic processes - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: deformation (geologic) - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: sedimentation - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: soil chemistry - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: water chemistry - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: Geology - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: geochemistry - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: structural geology - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: metamorphic petrology - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: radionuclide chemistry - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: geoinformatics - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: science management - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: research program development - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: program performance and evaluation - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: business efficiency - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: management - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: scientific integrity and ethics - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: strategic planning memberOf: '@type': OrganizationalRole member: '@type': Organization name: U.S. Geological Survey name: staff member startDate: '2024-05-12T15:17:05.379057' name: Linda C Gundersen url: https://www.usgs.gov/staff-profiles/linda-c-gundersen
