| Leesa Wingo - South Anchorage High School (Anchorage, AK) | |
| Research Experience: | Physical-biological coupling at frontal zones in Glacier Bay National Park |
| Research Objectives: | To characterize the spatial and temporal hydrodynamic features of potential frontal structures in the entrance region of Glacier Bay; to determine the relationship between frontal features and patterns of larval/plankton community distribution and abundance; and to assess whether these patterns contribute to the known adult distributions of certain species in Glacier Bay. |
| Research funded by: | U. S. Geological Survey and National Park Service |
| Host Researcher: | Lisa Etherington - USGS Alaska Science Center |
