Tom DeCarlo, lab leader
Tom received his Ph.D. from Massachusetts Institute of Technology / Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in 2016. He is interested in how our ocean is rapidly changing today and the consequences of these changes on marine life. His work has included carbonate geochemistry, Raman spectroscopy, paleoceanography, remote sensing, and sclerochronology. Although his research has used a wide range of techniques, the unifying theme has always been a connection to coral reef ecosystems.
