Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMuriel Dunn is a research scientist based in Tromsø with 11 years' experience applying physical oceanography, fisheries acoustics, and oceanographic instrumentation to real-world problems. She combines field-hardened skills (from at-sea observation and autonomous vehicle deployments) with strong coding in Python, MATLAB and R to develop efficient processing pipelines for large acoustic and oceanographic datasets. Her work spans algorithm development, sensor/platform integration, and tool-building—evidenced by contributions to RSKtools and bespoke WireWalker sampling algorithms. Currently at SINTEF Ocean after a PhD-focused research stint at Akvaplan-niva, she bridges academic rigor and operational needs for monitoring marine ecosystems. Muriel’s uncommon strength is turning messy, real-time field data into reproducible analyses and scalable workflows for autonomous systems.
