Deborah Rose is an Earth scientist on the Marine Energy Team in the Coastal Sciences Division of Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. She has been working at the PNNL-Seattle campus since March 2019, when she started part-time as an intern while she finished her master’s in marine affairs from the University of Washington. Her research then involved studying beaver and salmon habitat in northern California to inform restoration plans. Now, she works on projects that span various marine energy topics, kelp aquaculture, marine carbon dioxide removal, and community energy transitions.
