Why Is Marianne Nyegaard Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Marianne Nyegaard is a Danish marine biologist who specializes in the study of ocean sunfish. She is known for identifying the ocean sunfish species Mola tecta. Career As a PhD student at Murdoch University in Australia, Nyegaard lead a team of researchers in analyzing ocean sunfish DNA. While analyzing skin samples in 2013, she identified an undocumented species. She spent the next four years working with other researchers to identify and describe Mola tecta, or the hoodwinker sunfish, in 2017. Nyegaard has continued to help identify specimens of M. tecta in New Zealand, Australia, Chile, South Africa, the Santa Barbara Channel, and the west coast of Canada.
