Nancy Helen Marcus (May 17, 1950 – February 12, 2018) was an American biologist and oceanographer.

During her graduate studies, Marcus became known as an expert on copepod ecology and evolutionary biology.

She began her career as a postdoctoral fellow at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution where she studied copepod dormancy and its implications for marine aquaculture.

She continued her field research as a professor of oceanography and later as the director of the Florida State University Marine Laboratory (FSU).

During this time Marcus was elected as a Fellow of the Association for Women in Science and the American Association for the Advancement of Science and served as the president of the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography.

As the president, she led efforts in increase education activities and to increase the endowment fund.

She researched dormancy in copepods and how it applies to marine aquaculture.

1984

In 1984, Marcus and associate scientist George Grice completed a two and a half week trip in China at the invitation of professor Zheng Zhong, the founder of the marine biology program at Xiamen University.

Marcus and Grice presented papers on the reproductive biology of copepods.

Marcus stated that "there's great interest in the type of work we're doing and a need for U.S. scientific equipment and expertise."

Starting in September 1984, a visiting scientist from Xiamen researched in Marcus' lab for a year.
