In 2018, he began a PhD at Columbia University&#8217;s Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory with Dr. Jacqueline Austermann.\u00a0 Roger&#8217;s research at Columbia concerned sea-level change during past warm periods, how sea level affects subsea permafrost, and what we can learn about ice sheet stability from sea-level records. He defended his dissertation in October 2023, then moved to WHOI to begin a postdoctoral scholarship.\u00a0 At WHOI, Roger is studying how continental hydrology and human land use influence coastal ocean dynamic sea level, and the compound effects of sea-level, permafrost subsidence, and land hydrology on Arctic coastlines.<\/p>\n<p>EDUCATION<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>BA Geology and English; Amherst College (MA, USA) 2013<\/li>\n<li>MA Geophysics; Columbia University (NY, USA) 2021<\/li>\n<li>PhD Geophysics; Columbia University, 2023<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PEOPLE Roger Creel POSTDOCTORAL SCHOLAR Interests: Sea level, ice sheets, permafrost, ocean circulation, coastal evolution, sedimentology, probabilistic methods, scalable open-source computing Roger is a geophysicist who focuses on sea-level change in the past and future and the interactions between sea level and ice sheets, coastlines, permafrost, and continental hydrology.\u00a0 Roger&#8217;s work in geoscience began at&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":83,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/piecuch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/869"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/piecuch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/piecuch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/piecuch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/piecuch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=869"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/piecuch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/869\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":878,"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/piecuch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/869\/revisions\/878"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/piecuch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=869"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
