Joshua Harringmeyer
Postdoctoral Research Associate
|
Josh joined the lab in 2024 after completing his PhD in Earth and Environment at Boston University. Josh’s doctoral research explored the variability, sourcing, and fate of organic matter and suspended sediment in the nearshore coastal ocean, primarily in the northern Gulf of Mexico. He pursued questions in carbon cycling, coastline vulnerability, and urban water quality by combining data from ocean color remote sensing, biogeochemical experiments, and modeling approaches. Josh’s current research in the lab applies his expertise in hyperspectral remote sensing to quantify coastal organic matter dynamics and to develop approaches utilizing data from a new generation of satellite imaging spectrometers. Josh received dual bachelor’s degrees in geosciences and physics from Williams College.
