Corday Selden Ph.D 2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a member of both the Chappell and Mulholland labs at ODU, I employ \u2018omics techniques to understand the interplay between ecological and biogeochemical processes and stable-isotope tracers to quantify rates of nitrogen and carbon transformations in marine systems (e.g. nitrogen fixation, nitrogen compound uptake, carbon fixation). My PhD has focused on the distribution of nitrogen fixation, the microbially-mediated catalysis of N2<\/sub> gas to ammonium, and nitrogen-fixing organisms known as diazotrophs along the estuary to ocean continuum with respect to physico-chemical gradients. In my time at ODU, I have been involved in multiple projects including delineating the range of nitrogen fixation across oxygen gradients in the Eastern Tropical North and South Pacific oxygen deficient zones and estimating the contribution of diverse diazotroph communities along the eastern North American continental shelf to the North Atlantic nitrogen inventory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before coming to ODU I received my B.S. in Biology with a minor in Chemistry at Eckerd College, during which time I worked with Dr. David Hastings and collaborators at the University of South Florida to understand the effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill on sediment redox conditions and benthic foraminifera. I graduated in three years and completed a senior thesis in which I developed a foraminiferal relative-dominance index to assess changes in sediment oxygenation. I subsequently worked as a Biological Scientist at the Florida Fish and Wildlife Research Institute, the research arm of the state\u2019s conservation commission, where I assessed seagrass ecosystem health and water quality.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KC Filippino Ph.D 2008
KC\u00a0Filippino received her PhD with Dr. Mulholland in 2008, but continued work in the Mulholland lab on harmful algae blooms and local water quality and co-taught the OEAS Undergraduate Capstone course until 2016. Dr. Filippino currently works as a Senior Water Resources Planner with the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission (HRPDC). At HRPDC, she monitors Chesapeake Bay Program (CBP) developments and Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) implementation for Hampton Roads\u2019 localities within the Bay watershed. She is the co-chair of CBP\u2019s Land Use Workgroup, a local government representative for the Urban Stormwater Workgroup, and a member of the BMP ad-hoc Verification Team. She researches innovative water quality related topics to inform Hampton Roads\u2019 stormwater managers, planners, and consultants, manages the Regional Water Quality Monitoring Program with USGS and the Hampton Roads Sanitation District (HRSD), and coordinates speakers and research topics for monthly Regional Environmental Committee and quarterly Water Quality Technical Workgroup meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
