Not enough data
Rebecca Kessler's coverage primarily focuses on scientific themes related to marine ecology, illegal fishing, forced labor, and wildlife protection. Her articles often cite data and government announcements. Given this focus, she may be interested in receiving pitches from scientists or researchers who can provide insights into ecological changes, tracking of marine life populations or behavior, enforcement of regulations related to fishing practices or labor standards.
Pitches that highlight innovative research methods using AI and satellite data to track environmental changes or monitor fishing activities could also attract her attention. Additionally, experts with knowledge of the impact of oil spills on marine ecosystems and efforts for wildlife conservation would likely resonate with her coverage area.
While Rebecca does not appear to have a specific geographic focus mentioned in the provided article titles and attributes, it is evident that she covers international issues pertaining to marine ecology and wildlife protection.

It was spring, 20 years ago now, but he remembers it clearly. On the deck of the Geco Resolution, wind tearing spray from the waves, Robert McCauley stood gazing out onto an ocean blackened by night. The ship had been firing seismic airguns all day, thunderous blasts punching through the water and into the seabed. […]
