Kendra Lee Daly is an oceanographer known for her work on zooplankton, particularly in low oxygen regions of the ocean. She is a professor at the University of South Florida, and an elected fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Education and career
Daly has a B.S. (1973)[1] and a M.S. (1990)[2] from the University of Washington. In 1995 she earned her Ph.D. from the University of Tennessee with a dissertation on zooplankton in the Arctic.[3] Following her Ph.D. she did postdoctoral work at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and was a program director at the National Science Foundation. In 2001 she moved to the University of South Florida where she was promoted to professor in 2014.[1]
Research
Daly's early research was conducted in the Weddell Sea where she examined the abundance,[4] growth, and feeding of krill.[5] Subsequently she examined year-to-year changes in the development of krill in Antarctica,[6] and the role of zooplankton in organic sulfur cycling in the Southern Ocean.[7] She has examined how plankton production is impacted by physics and biology,[8] such as her work looking at carbon and nitrogen cycling in polar regions.[9][10] Following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, Daly considered how the spill may have altered plankton production in the region,[11] worked with a team tracking oil droplets in the water using automated image analysis,[12] and assessed potential toxic effects of the oil on the biological community in the Gulf of Mexico.[13][14]
