Senior🎓
Top SchoolTanya Maurer is an oceanographer and research specialist with eight years of experience managing and analyzing biogeochemical profiling float data for major arrays like SOCCOM and GO-BGC. Based in Moss Landing, she blends field instrumentation expertise and long‑term monitoring with data processing, quality control, and modeling workflows to deliver trusted environmental datasets. Her background includes remote-sensing assimilation for numerical weather prediction and hands-on operation of coastal monitoring platforms, giving her a rare crosswalk between in-situ and space‑based observations. Known for building reproducible Matlab and Python pipelines and supporting real‑time public data streams, she helps turn complex sensor outputs into actionable science. An often-overlooked strength is her experience in excitation-emission matrix spectroscopy and HAB monitoring, which complements her float-focused work with coastal water‑quality insight.
