Gabriella Lirio is a research associate at CIMAS/AOML with the Ocean Biogeochemistry Group. In this role, her research involves using microCT technology to assess changes in morphology of marine calcifiers due to ocean changes, like ocean acidification, and what role these marine calcifiers play in the biological carbon pump. Gabriella has a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science and Secondary STEM Education from Florida State University. She was supported by the NOAA EPP/MSI CCME-II program for her master’s degree in Environmental Science at Florida A&M University.
