Sarah Myhre

[3][1] She immersed herself in the outdoors throughout her childhood, whether it was skiing on the North Cascades mountains or exploring tide pools with her marine scientist aunt.

She performed field work in Costa Rica, monitoring the recovery of a sea urchin species that helps coral reefs thrive.

[7] Her new research area combined her previous interests; she studied geology to analyze ancient marine ecosystems and how they reacted to sudden climate changes in Earth's history.

[1] From 2015 to 2019, Myhre was a research associate at the University of Washington's School of Oceanography where she continued her analysis of how marine life adjusted to past abrupt climate changes.

[1] A large body of her work concerns the ecosystems off the coast of California, where she takes a palaeoecological approach to understanding Earth's history of climate change.
