Dr. Moon is curious, enthusiastic, determined, scientific, and interested in making a difference through science. Her research most often examines the Greenland Ice Sheet and the Arctic, and areas of her research include: Arctic system science, ice sheet - ocean interaction, ice loss & freshwater flux, ice - ecosystem connections, hydrology of glaciers & ice sheets, and glacier & ice sheet dynamics. Dr. Moon is also a skilled science communicator, working with media, policy and decision makers, business leaders, and the public.
