Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) - or NOAA Research - provides the research foundation for understanding the complex systems that support our planet.
March is Women’s History Month, and throughout the month we are recognizing the women of NOAA Research who contribute to the innovative and impactful progress towards NOAA’s mission. This week we are highlighting some of the women who are making critical contributions to NOAA’s work in marine heatwave research. The ocean absorbsassociated with global warming. As a result, we know that marine heatwaves all over the planet are becoming warmer over time with the added impact of climate change.
Natalie’s pathway to oceanographic research and NOAA is an inspiring one of breaking through barriers; she says the single moment of her career that she takes the most pride in is when she, “as a first-generation, female student from a single-parent, low-income household,” defended her doctoral dissertation in front of her mother, brothers, and mentors to become the very first Ph.D. graduate in her family.

Pursuing a Ph.D. is never easy, but Tongtong faced the added challenge of having to change research projects midway through. “Instead of giving up,” she says, “I took initiative to explore a new field and topic of interest, which ultimately led me to where I am today.” Tongtong reflects on the day she received her Ph.D. as one of the proudest moments in her career!
at NOAA’s Atlantic Oceanographic & Meteorological Laboratory in Miami, Florida, Ana Palacio-Castro is working to fill critical gaps in our understanding of the interplay between different climate stressors and South Florida’s ecosystems. These climate stressors, like ocean warming and acidification, marine heat waves,, are likely to evolve under future climate change scenarios.
