Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGeorgina Gibson is a Staff Scientist and Research Associate Professor with over twenty years of expertise developing, validating, and analyzing marine ecosystem models ranging from simple functional-response formulations to basin-scale, three-dimensional coupled bio-physical systems. She specializes in lower trophic-level NPZ food-web models and individual-based larval fish models to link hydrographic variability with spatial and temporal patterns of biomass and production in high-latitude oceans. Her work combines computational modeling, statistical analysis, and supercomputing—built on a PhD in Biological Oceanography from the University of Alaska Fairbanks and postdoctoral training at the Arctic Region Supercomputing Center. Based in Santa Fe but rooted in Arctic research through positions at the International Arctic Research Center and a joint appointment with Los Alamos National Laboratory, she has translated complex physical-biological interactions into actionable ecosystem insights. Known for bridging theoretical and operational modeling, she has a rare breadth spanning zero-dimensional to fully coupled regional models, enabling both mechanistic understanding and predictive skill. Raised on the Isle of Wight, she brings a lifelong connection to marine environments to her computationally driven science.
