Scientists from the National Water Census team (Shirley Leung, Kaycee Faunce, and Alice McCarthy) attend a conference to discuss USGS water data and products with USGS water data users.
Kaycee E. Faunce
Kaycee Faunce is a geographer at the Virginia and West Virginia Water Science Center.
Kaycee is a geographer with interests in decision support tools, graphic design and illustration, scientific communication, and geospatial analysis.
Much of her work with the USGS has focused on the mapping and visualization of USGS water data; creating engaging web content to promote and explain USGS science to wide audiences; designing and developing interactive decision support tools; supporting the development of automated and reproducible scientific workflows; and developing modeling approaches for assessing the presence and distribution of emerging contaminants in rivers from discharges of treated wastewater.
