December 7, we’ll get to know Dr. Marianne McNamara, a Professor of Biology and Marine Biology/Oceanography at Suffolk County Community College. Specializing in marine biology, she spent several months at sea in nearby Long Island waters, as well as the Eastern Tropical Pacific and Antarctica, studying the feeding ecology of zooplankton. Prior to and during her tenure at SCCC, she served as a naturalist and educator for numerous local organizations including the Riverhead Foundation for Marine Research and Preservation, Ward Melville Heritage Organization, Long Island Divers Association, and the Coastal Research and Education Society of Long Island (CRESLI). She continues to work with CRESLI as a naturalist aboard summer whale watching trips out of Montauk. Dr. McNamara was awarded the Jerry R. Schubel Graduate Fellowship for her role in transmitting science into forms that are accessible to the public and continues to promote scientific and ocean literacy as a traveling lecturer in SCCC’s Professors on Wheels program.
