Ms. Overhus has a strong background in environmental science, wildlife conservation, and marine biology. She works across several scientific disciplines to determine implications of human stressors on marine resources and ecosystem processes, and works with stakeholder groups and resource managers to ensure that the available scientific information is accessible and available, particularly through www.tethys.pnnl.gov. Her recent research has been focused on environmental impacts from the development of wave, tidal, offshore and land-based wind, ocean current, and riverine energy installations and the role that these effects could play in the global industry. Her other work revolves around the Blue Economy, including ocean observation and offshore energy to power the maritime industry.
