Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDenisse Arcos is a Climate Impacts Data Scientist and PhD candidate at the University of Tasmania’s Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, bringing nine years of cross-disciplinary experience in marine ecology, environmental consulting, and data science. Her research combines high-resolution ocean-sea ice model outputs with ecological data to predict how changes in Antarctic sea ice and ocean dynamics will affect krill, penguins, seals and whales across the Southern Ocean. Skilled in Python, R, GIS, remote sensing and cloud-based big data workflows, she has applied these tools from field studies in the Galapagos to national monitoring programs in Australia. Denisse has led data management, protocol development and training initiatives, and volunteers as Vice President of Datatas to promote data science among students. She blends rigorous field experience with a programmer’s mindset, often translating complex model outputs into actionable ecological insights. Her background in both marine biology and languages gives her a rare ability to communicate technical science to diverse audiences.
