"abstract": "Her research focus is on climate change impacts to coastal ecosystems. In particular, her work has included assessing sea-level rise and storm impacts to coastal ecosystems, wetland ecology, restoration, and blue carbon. She received her Ph.D. and MS from the University of California, Davis.Dr. Thorne's interests lie in conservation and management issues surrounding climate-related research that assess changes to ecosystems. Her current focus is assessing how sea-level rise and storms impact tidal wetland ecosystems in the U.S. and island habitats. She conducts research to inform climate adaptation and planning to help managers mitigate impacts and conduct restoration. Her research is based on field data collection methods that can be developed into climate change impact models using ArcGIS and other remote sensing tools.RESEARCH INTERESTSGlobal Change BiologyCoastal EcosystemsWetland EcologyRestorationThreatened & Endangered SpeciesBlue CarbonLandscape EcologyEcological Response ModelingStorm MonitoringSea-level Rise Planning & Decision Support", | |||
