Jeramy Dedrick

Ph.D. in Scripps Institution of Oceanography

Jeramy Dedrick
Jeramy L. Dedrick is a Ph.D. candidate in Oceanography with a concentration in Climate Science at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at University of California, San Diego. He received bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Meteorology and Ocean Science from Texas A&M University in College Station. Jeramy’s research centers on the complex interactions of small particles (aerosols) produced by manmade and natural processes that form and alter the characteristics of clouds as well as their implications in a warming global climate. Motivated by his research interests, Jeramy engages with historically underserved communities that are more susceptible to the effects of climate change through mentorship and educational outreach in the greater San Diego area and his home state of Texas. He also advocates for his community through his service on committees dedicated to diversity and inclusion at the institutional level. Jeramy hopes to use the training gained during his Ph.D. to increase the participation of minority students in environmental science fields by helping to lead the deconstruction of systemic institutional barriers to research access in a future academic career.
