She studies how icebergs impact the way water moves in fjords, acting like floating barriers and creating changes in water flow. Kylie is also interested in how water from melting glaciers leaves fjords and mixes into the larger ocean, affecting global currents.<\/span><\/p>\n \n Using observations from a fjord in Greenland and computer models, Kylie\u2019s research helps us understand the important role icebergs and glaciers play in the ocean.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” title_text=”dss nov 2025 2″ src=”https:\/\/oceaninstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/dss-nov-2025-2.png” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"distinguished-speaker-series-kylie-kinne","image":false,"all_day":false,"start_date":"2025-11-05 18:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2025","month":"11","day":"05","hour":"18","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2025-11-05 20:00:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2025","month":"11","day":"05","hour":"20","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2025-11-06 02:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2025","month":"11","day":"06","hour":"02","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2025-11-06 04:00:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2025","month":"11","day":"06","hour":"04","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"America\/Los_Angeles","timezone_abbr":"PST","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"","currency_code":"","currency_position":"prefix","values":[]},"website":"","show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":true,"featured":true,"categories":[{"name":"Distinguished Speaker Series","slug":"distinguished-speaker-series","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":59,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"The Ocean Institute\u2019s Distinguished Speaker Series, presented by the Nicholas Endowment, brings interesting innovations, real-world research, exotic experiences, and delightful discoveries to the surface through powerful presentations from an ocean of experts.
