Mark Scheuerell is a quantitative
ecologist with the U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service’s
Northwest Fisheries Science Center in Seattle, Washington. Dr.
Scheuerell received his Ph.D. from the University of Washington in
2002. His general research interests include habitat coupling among
marine, freshwater, and terrestrial ecosystems and the role of
humans and climate in structuring ecological systems. Mark uses a
combination of simulation and statistical modeling approaches to
investigate the effects of climate and ocean conditions on the
survival and age composition of Pacific salmon. He has also
developed a habitat-based life-cycle model for use in conservation
planning for salmon with colleagues at the University of Washington
and NMFS. Mark continues to collaborate with the UW Alaska Salmon
Program, studying how climate variation and food web dynamics affect
salmon populations and their coastal ecosystems. In his free time
Mark likes to ski, ride his bikes, play ultimate frisbee, and spend
time with his wife and daughter.
