... His technical expertise includes the evaluation of the environmental fate and effects of physical, biological, and chemical stressors on terrestrial and aquatic systems. He has applied his expertise to situations involving nutrient enrichment, chemical contamination, use of pesticides and other chemical products, oil and gas operations, fossil fuel and nuclear power plants, alternative energy projects, mining, invasive species, water management, and vulnerability assessments for climate change.

... Applied research includes toxicity testing for application to risk assessment, regulation and management activities and providing solutions to applied environmental problems, such as, invasive species control. Recent investigations have focused on the chemical partitioning, fate and effects of organic UV filters, crude oils, oil spill dispersants and organic disinfection by-products in numerous invertebrate and vertebrate species, but especially sensitive and/or understudied species like corals and reptiles.

... Woodley has served as a research scientist with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Ocean Service, National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science in Charleston, South Carolina for the last 30 years. With expertise in biochemistry, cellular biology, and pathobiology, she leads a multidisciplinary research team focused on understanding the effects of physical, chemical, and/or biological risk factors affecting conservation and management of vulnerable shallow-water coral species.
