In this edition of the ECOP Wednesdays event series, hosted by the EMB Young Ambassadors and the EMB Secretariat for the EMB ECOP network, Marga García spoke on the topic of "Antarctica: a continent for research and cooperation. The view of a geoscientist".
Marga García is a scientific researcher at the Marine Geosciences (GEMAR) research group of the Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO-CSIC) since 2020. Her scientific interest is the study of sedimentary processes on continental margins, and their link to global climate and geo-habitat conservation. In particular, she has focused on the interaction between bottom current circulation and sedimentary systems in mid- and high-latitude continental margins in the Mediterranean Sea, Atlantic Ocean, Southern Ocean and Antarctica. She has developed her research in several Spanish and international institutions, including the University of Chile, Ifremer (France), the University of Cambridge (UK), Ghent University (Belgium) and Rice University (USA).
