[Figure 0.2 here] Stephen E. Davis III, Ph.D., is Chief Science Officer of The Everglades Foundation. Born in Dayton, Ohio, Dr. Davis moved to Miami in 1995 to begin his PhD study at Florida International University (FIU) with research focused on the coastal Everglades. Funded by the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), his research was focused on how increased freshwater flows through the mangrove ecotone of lower Taylor Slough would influence exchanges of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus with Florida Bay. Upon completing his PhD in 1999 and following a brief post-doctoral position, he moved to College Station, Texas in 2001 to become an Assistant Professor of Wetland Ecology at Texas A&M University. In addition to research projects focused on freshwater flow benefits to Texas estuaries and coastal wetlands, Dr. Davis maintained an active Everglades research program while at Texas A&M, including a long-standing collaboration with the Florida Coastal Everglades Long Term Ecological Research Program based at FIU. Shortly after receiving tenure and promotion to Associate Professor, Dr. Davis returned to Miami in 2009 to work for The Everglades Foundation, officially resigning from Texas A&M in 2011. Over the past 13 years with The Everglades Foundation, Dr. Davis has been a staff scientist, Communications Director, Vice President of Communications & Engagement, and now, Chief Science Officer. He oversees a team of scientists focused on advancing Everglades restoration and guides science efforts focused on system-wide hydrologic and ecological modeling, water quality compliance, operations, and restoration project planning. He has more than two decades of multi-PI collaborative research experience and over a decade of communications and facilitation experience. He appears regularly in the media related to Everglades issues, he has authored or co-authored over 70 peer-reviewed science publications, he holds a Courtesy Associate Professor appointment at FIU, serves on the College of Arts, Sciences, and Education's Dean's Advisory Board, and is a Coordinating Editor for the scientific journal Restoration Ecology.
