Frank M眉ller-Karger is a Professor in the College of Marine Science, University of South Florida. He studies coastal and marine ecosystems including the links between water quality, biological production, and biodiversity, and how these may be connected to climate change and human activities. He uses satellite remote sensing and field work to measure how marine life is changing. Muller-Karger serves as co-lead of the US and international Marine Biodiversity Observation Network (MBON), the Marine Life 2030 program endorsed by the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development, and the NOAA Climate Program Office/Sanctuaries Climate Indicator Task Force. He has published over 340 scientific articles. He received the individual William T. Pecora Award in 2021, is a AAAS Fellow, and served on the U.S. Commission on Ocean Policy. Muller-Karger promotes science and technology, working with the public to advance environmental conservation, locally, nationally, and internationally. For fun Frank likes to be out on the water on a boat and to paint landscapes using watercolors.
