Anthony is a senior research engineer in the Ocean Technology & Engineering group at the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton. His research interests are focused on developing sensors to study the ocean carbonate system (pH, dissolved inorganic carbon and alkalinity).
Anthony completed his studies in the USA and graduated with a BS degree in Chemistry from Saginaw Valley State University (2012) and he went on to do a PhD in Chemistry (with a specialisation in electrochemistry) at the University of Iowa (2018). He then moved to the UK and completed two 2.5-year postdoctoral research appointments at the University of Warwick (2020) and the University of Leicester (2023) working on sensor development and battery chemistry research, respectively. He came to the NOC in spring 2023 and has been developing as an early career ocean scientist. Since joining NOC, Anthony has participated in a research cruise to the PAP-SO in the northeast Atlantic Ocean with a team of scientists studying the water column chemistry.
Joining the Challenger Society Council in 2024, Anthony will serve as the website portfolio officer.

Socio-oceanography Workshop sets sights on key climate and ocean challenges
The National Oceanography Centre (NOC) is calling on scientists and researchers to participate in its fourth annual Socio-Oceanography Workshop, hosted in collaboration with the Marine Social Science Network.
This international event, set to take place at NOC’s Southampton site 26-28 February 2025, will gather experts across natural and social sciences to tackle the pressing issues linking people and the changing ocean.
This year’s workshop will focus on four key themes, including the impact of climate change-driven shifts in marine species distribution and how these changes will affect the way the UK marine environment is perceived, valued, and managed.
Other topics include integrating digital humans into environmental digital twins, addressing biases in research related to marine carbon dioxide removal, and exploring how local communities can engage in participatory environmental monitoring.
