Dr. Emily Lemagie

Dr. Lemagie is a postdoctoral scholar at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. She received her PhD in Physical Oceanography at Oregon State University in 2018 and worked as a postdoctoral scholar at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution before joining the Giddings lab group. Emily’s research investigates the physical and biological linkages and transport pathways in both estuarine and coastal environments on immediate to climatic timescales. She has focused on estuarine residence time, river plume dynamics, and across-shelf exchange in order to determine the immediate and long-term effects of event to climate-scale changes on coastal ecosystems. Currently she is studying the importance of remote oceanic forcing on estuarine exchange flow across the estuarine parameter space.
