John T. Tanacredi, Ph.D. is Professor of Earth and Environmental Sciences in the Biology, Chemistry and Environmental Studies Department and Director of the Center for Environmental Research and Coastal Oceans Monitoring (CERCOM) Field Station, at Molloy College, Rockville Centre, New York. He has held Research Associate positions at the Wildlife Conservation Society, New York Aquarium -Osborn Laboratories of Marine Science; at The American Museum of Natural History, at the Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University, and co-chair of the Conservation Committee of the Explorers Club. A Research Ecologist for 26 years in the US National Park Service, serving as Chief of the Division of Natural Resources and as one of the NPS's Coastal Natural Resource Specialist duty stationed for 9 years at the Graduate School of Oceanography, University of Rhode Island, Narragansett, RI. An Environmental Analyst of the U.S. Coast Guard, Bridge Administration preparingNEPA environmental impact statements for bridge and highway construction in six eastern US states and was a U.S. Navy Flight Meteorologist "Hurricane Hunter"

Dr. Tanacredi received his doctorate in Environmental Health Engineering from Polytechnic University, M.S. degree in Environmental Health Sciences from Hunter College, Institute of Health Sciences, CUNY and BS in Biological Sciences from Richmond College, CUNY

He has continued his Long Island, Horseshoe Crab habitat inventory of some 115 locations tracking Horseshoe Crab breeding conditions and habitat. He is one of the founding members of the IUCN-SSG (International Union for the Conservation of Nature - Scientific Specialists Group for Horseshoe Crabs) and principal coordinator of several International Conferences on Horseshoe Crab Conservation and Biology. He has published over 65 peer reviewed scientific research publications, written, and edited 7 books and has been included and interviewed in a host of TV, Radio, and Social Media Outlets.

His co-edited book "Conservation and Biology of Horseshoe Crabs", Springer, 2009 was one of the initiating factors in conducting the subsequent Asian Horseshoe Crab Conferences providing considerable support for including all four Horseshoe Crabs species on the IUCN's "Red List". His latest book, "The Redesigned Earth: An Introduction to Ecology for Engineers as if the Earth Really Mattered" (2019), by Springer- Nature, has received rave reviews.

約翰·T·塔納克雷迪（John T. Tanacredi），博士是美國紐約州羅克維爾中心莫洛伊學院（Molloy College）生物、化學與環境研究系的地球與環境科學教授，以及環境研究與沿海海洋監測中心（CERCOM）實地站的主任。他曾在野生動物保護協會（Wildlife Conservation Society）、紐約水族館的奧斯本海洋科學實驗室（Osborn Laboratories of Marine Science）、美國自然歷史博物館（The American Museum of Natural History）、哥倫比亞大學的拉蒙特-多赫提地球觀測站（Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory）擔任研究助理，並擔任探險家俱樂部（Explorers Club）保護委員會的共同主席。在美國國家公園管理局（US National Park Service）擔任研究生態學家26年，曾任自然資源部門的主任，並作為NPS的沿海自然資源專家之一，在羅德島大學（University of Rhode Island）海洋學研究所（Graduate School of Oceanography）駐站9年。曾擔任美國海岸警衛隊（U.S. Coast Guard）環境分析師，負責為六個美國東部州的橋樑和公路建設準備NEPA環境影響報告，並曾是美國海軍的飛行氣象學家「颶風獵人」。

塔納克雷迪博士在多元科技大學（Polytechnic University）獲得環境健康工程博士學位，在亨特學院（Hunter College）健康科學研究所（Institute of Health Sciences, CUNY）獲得環境健康科學碩士學位，並在里士滿學院（Richmond College, CUNY）獲得生物科學學士學位。

他持續進行長島（Long Island）馬蹄蟹棲息地的調查，追蹤約115個地點的馬蹄蟹繁殖條件和棲息地。他是國際自然保護聯盟科學專家小組（IUCN-SSG，International Union for the Conservation of Nature - Scientific Specialists Group for Horseshoe Crabs）的創始成員之一，並擔任多個國際馬蹄蟹保護與生物學會議的主要協調者。他已發表超過65篇經過同行評審的科學研究出版物，撰寫和編輯了7本書籍，並在多個電視、廣播和社交媒體平台上接受過採訪。

他共同編輯的書籍《馬蹄蟹的保護與生物學》（Conservation and Biology of Horseshoe Crabs），由Springer於2009年出版，是後續亞洲馬蹄蟹會議的發起因素之一，為將所有四種馬蹄蟹列入IUCN的「紅色名錄」提供了相當的支持。他的最新著作《重新設計的地球：工程師的生態學入門，彷彿地球真的很重要》（The Redesigned Earth: An Introduction to Ecology for Engineers as if the Earth Really Mattered，2019），由Springer-Nature出版，獲得了廣泛好評。
