Invited speaker£ºDr. Andrew Fischer£¬University of Tasmania
Biography: Andrew M. Fischer is a biological oceanographer with expertise in remote sensing. He specializes in the integration of multi-scale and multidisciplinary remote and in situ sensing to describe coastal ocean processes. In particular, he adapts the use of satellite and airborne, hyper/multi-spectral imagery to characterizing estuarine and algal bloom dynamics. Andrew received his undergraduate degree from Emory University, a master from the University of Washington and a Ph.D. in Geological Sciences from Cornell University (USA). He is currently a lecturer at the University if Tasmania’s National Centre for Marine Conservation and Resources Sustainability in Australia.
 Title: Coastal ocean processes and the inception and spread of red tides
Short Abstract: Characterizing variability in the dynamic coastal/estuarine environment requires a multi-scale and multidisciplinary approach that involves integrating data from a variety of platforms and sensors. Using examples, primarily from Monterey Bay, this talk focuses on coupled biological/physical processes responsible for red tide inception and spread.  This talk also addresses some ongoing work with remote sensing in estuaries to understand water quality patterns and sediment transport.
