Alison B. Duxbury taught oceanography, cell biology, genetics, and plant biology for 20 years at Seattle Community College. Alison’s early research concentrated on the large algae of the Northwest and later changed to the evaluation of populations of northeast coast planktonic algae—including mechanisms controlling growth and reproduction rates. She was also co-founder of the highly successful Biotechnology Training Program that provides laboratory personnel for Seattle’s many biotech industries. Alison has been responsible for co-authoring several successful oceanography texts with her husband, Alyn. Both she and Alyn have seen Introduction to the World’s Oceans through six editions and recently released the third edition of the successful Fundamentals of Oceanography. Alison received both her B.A. in Botany and her M.A. in Marine Botany from the University of California-Berkeley.
