Overview

Sarah A. Woodin is affiliated with the University of South Carolina in the United States. Their body of work primarily focuses on environmental science and earth and planetary sciences, with particular emphasis on oceanography, global and planetary change, and ecology.

Their research topics cover diverse aspects of marine biology and ecology, marine bivalve and aquaculture studies, marine and fisheries research, ocean acidification effects and responses, marine and coastal plant biology, urban heat island mitigation, and calibration and measurement techniques.

Frequent co-authors in their work include:

  • David S. Wethey
  • Celia Olabarría
  • Elsa Vázquez
  • Nicolás Weidberg
  • Salvador Román

Sarah A. Woodin has published multiple papers in various venues. Notable publication venues with multiple contributions include:

  • Marine Environmental Research
  • Frontiers in Marine Science
  • Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science
  • Remote Sensing
  • Biology

Recent papers by Woodin highlight research on bivalves under environmental stress. These include:

  • Contrasting responsiveness of four ecologically and economically important bivalves to simulated heat waves (2020), published in Marine Environmental Research
  • Sublethal responses of four commercially important bivalves to low salinity (2020), published in Ecological Indicators
  • Reproduction Under Stress: Acute Effect of Low Salinities and Heat Waves on Reproductive Cycle of Four Ecologically and Commercially Important Bivalves (2021), published in Frontiers in Marine Science
  • Climate change and Arenicola marina: Heat waves and the southern limit of an ecosystem engineer (2022), published in Estuarine Coastal and Shelf Science
  • Clam feeding plasticity reduces herbivore vulnerability to ocean warming and acidification (2020), published in Nature Climate Change

Woodin's research intersects marine ecosystems and environmental stressors such as heat waves, ocean warming, salinity changes, and acidification impacts on marine species.

In recognition of their professional contributions, Sarah A. Woodin was awarded the title of Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in 1981.
