The occurrence of several whale and dolphin species in the Gulf of Mexico drastically dropped off in the decade following the ...
Focuses on the biogeochemical cycling of trace metals in marine systems. CalCOFI is a long-term, interdisciplinary, cross-sectoral ecosystem research program off the coast of California that ...
We use sequence-based approaches, flow cytometry, modeling, and other techniques to explore the structure and function of microbial communities. CalCOFI is a long-term, interdisciplinary, ...
The primary area of research is air-sea interaction, including the topics of surface wave dynamics, air-sea fluxes, upper ocean turbulence, including Langmuir circulations, and the remote sensing of ...
The study of the effects of climate changes on human health, particularly from an epidemiological perspective. Potential graduate students interested in this topic may want to apply for the Climate, ...
The study of the causes and prevention of human disease, with particular emphasis on air quality, aerosols, temperature, and other climatic effects.
The group focuses on observing and modeling coastal processes including beach evolution, cliff erosion, and nearshore waves. CW3E provides water cycle science, technology and outreach to support ...
Researching how earth's climate changed in past eras by studying ocean sediment cores, ice cores, and other scientific evidence.
A global network of robotic floats that measure the changing state of the ocean. Develops and implements coastal observatories, serves as a science and technical interface with local, state, and ...
The study of the ecology of marine communities that live on or near the rocks and sediments of the ocean floor. (Crab photo courtesy biological oceanographer Lisa Levin.) CMBC promotes ...
Biochemical and physiological mechanisms of adaptation of organisms to the marine environment. Special emphasis is on biological responses to temperature, salinity, carbon dioxide, pH and bicarbonate ...
