Two Scientists Named to Ocean Advisory Panel
Eunha Hoh and Arielle Levine will contribute expert advice to the California Ocean Protection Council.
Two 色情视频 scientists have been named to the California Ocean Protection Council鈥檚 Science Advisory Team, an expert interdisciplinary group formed to address issues impacting the state鈥檚 coastal and marine ecosystems.
Eunha Hoh, professor and head of the Division of Environmental Health in the School of Public Health, and Arielle Levine, professor of geography, were appointed by the (OPC) in May and an announcement was made today.
The OPC, part of the state鈥檚 Natural Resources Agency, was established in 2004 to help protect, conserve and maintain healthy coastal and ocean ecosystems and the economies they support. Its Science Advisory Team, created in 2008, provides scientific expertise, guidance and recommendations.
Both scientists are looking forward to serving on the advisory group.
Hoh said she is particularly interested in the protection of the ocean 鈥渇rom human activities, in terms of marine pollution of chemical contaminants and plastic.鈥
Levine said, 鈥淭he primary reason I agreed to be part of the OPC Science Advisory Team is that I鈥檇 like to be able to play a role in informing and improving ocean management in California.鈥
The appointments are for three-year terms, which can be renewed. A third appointment to the advisory team, Laurie Richmond, an associate professor of environmental planning at CSU鈥檚 Humboldt State University, also was announced.
