Michael Lonneman

Michael is the data coordinator for MarineGEO and the Coastal Carbon Coordination Network, based out of the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center. He leads the development of MarineGEO's data system to ensure that MarineGEO data is high-quality, accessible, and reusable for MarineGEO partners and the public. Michael is excited to be able to develop workflows and tools, such as web-based interactive applications, that integrate the diverse range of data collected across MarineGEO observatories, including near real-time sensor data, annual ecological and environmental surveys, and one-time coordinated experiments and bioblitzes. Michael obtained his MA in Environmental and Ecological Anthropology from the University of Georgia in 2018.
