About Me
- Marianne E. McNamara
- I am currently a PhD student working in Dr. Darcy Lonsdale's zooplankton ecology lab at the Marine Science Research Center at Stony Brook University. My research focuses on feeding ecology and food web dynamics of gelatinous zooplankton, particularly ctenophores. I am interested in the study of top-down control of zooplankton populations by gelatinous predators. I am also interested in the factors influencing larval survival of the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi, and how this survival changes on a seasonal basis and in response to shifting microplankton assemblages. In the next 6 months, I will be participating in 2 research cruises studying zooplankton at sea. The first, in the Eastern Tropical Pacific, is a 4-week long cruise working with researchers from the University of Rhode Island. The second is a 6-week long research cruise at the bottom of the world, studying zooplankton ecology in the Ross Sea, Antarctica. Check out the links to these cruises on this website and follow my adventures at sea!
