Dr. Kelli Moran

It feels like I’ve been working towards this forever, but today was my first day working on the Woods Hole campus as a #Mendenhall Postdoctoral Research Fellow with the #USGS and the possibilities seem endless. I can’t wait to see where this next chapter takes me!

It’s officially official: I’m outta here! Graduations are always a little bitter sweet. It will be hard to leave some of this behind, but I’m excited to see where the next adventure takes me. #womeninscience #oceanography #lsu #womeningeoscience #PhD #lsu2023 #LSUGrad

I’ve been working towards this goal for a very long time and now that I’ve made it, it feels a bit surreal. Graduation is tomorrow!

Congrats, Lizzy! I’m so glad all of the hard work you put into this project paid off. This is a well earned award!

I’ll be giving a talk about the Alabama Underwater Forest this Friday at #ECU as part of the Geology Department’s Emerging Geoscientist Scholars Seminar Series. I’m excited about the talk and I can’t wait to see some familiar faces! Once a #pirates, always a pirate! #ARRRGH

Yesterday was a whirlwind, but I successfully defended my dissertation! It doesn’t feel real yet, but I’m sure that’s coming. #womeninscience #oceanography #lsu #womeningeoscience #PhD #itsdoctoractually

I’m excited to share that I will be defending my dissertation on Thursday, December 1st at 9 am (CST). There is a zoom link on the flyer and anyone who is interested is welcome to attend. I promise it will be more interesting than the title implies! #womeninscience #LSU #PhD

A call to Geoscience scholars near the end of terminal degrees, recent graduates, postdoctoral scholars: Geological Sciences @ East Carolina University is looking for speakers for the C.Q. Brown and Barbara Hedgepeth Brown Seminar Series 👇🏻 @BlkinGeoscience @GeoLatinas

I’m extremely honored to be recognized alongside these incredible researchers at #GSA2022! Come hang out TONIGHT @ 7pm in the Mile High Ballroom 2AB at the @GSAQGG reception to talk about our award winning projects.

I’m presenting at today’s @BOEM Internal Transfer Meeting with an update on the Alabama Underwater Forest. You can join in by registering here: lnkd.in/eFfMrJsQ and catch up on the latest #geophysics #geochemistry and #environmentalchange w/@BromeKendall @SANDgeophysics

Half way done a 72-hour survey of the Alabama underwater forest with the 3D Chirp. We may be a bit sleep deprived but the weather is fantastic and the data look great! #womeninscience #oceanography #geophysics #lsu #womeningeoscience #phdlife

I may have been a little too enthusiastic while exploring the mud flats in the Oosterschelde… I managed to get both of my shoes back though! #IRESNL22 @TheH2OInstitute @UofNO @tudelft_CT @deltares @UniUtrecht @LSU_CCE

I traveled half way around the world to learn how to use @Delft3D and I found a fellow @LSU_CCE #LSUtiger. It was great to catch up, @KifayathC

Today’s modeling was a bit more complicated, but I managed to get a working wave model showing the impact a hardened structure has on wave propagation #IRESNL22 @TheH2OInstitute @UofNO @tudelft_CT @deltares @UniUtrecht

Fun morning learning about the #maeslantkering — the largest storm surge protection structure in the #Netherlands with @TheH2OInstitute @UofNO @tudelft_CT @deltares @UniUtrecht

Amsterdam, here I come! I can’t wait to meet everyone in person @TheH2OInstitute @UofNO @tudelft_CT @deltares @UniUtrecht

CC&E student Kelli Moran is 1 of 14 in the nation to receive an NSF grant that supports graduate student study in the Netherlands! The Netherlands & Louisiana are similar in that they have some of the most engineered coastlines in the world. Learn more: ow.ly/iwtk50IWVgX

@GradLSU @LSUResearch @LSU_CCE

I am so excited to participate in this fantastic opportunity hosted by @TheH2OInstitute and @UofNO! Anyone know how to say coffee in Dutch?
