Findings has critical implications for predicting extreme weather events such as hurricanes and heavy rainfall
Historic coral breeding effort marks new era in coral research and reef restoration
Using genome reconstruction, scientists unveiled a once “invisible” fish parasite present in many marine fish world-wide that belongs to one of the most important groups of parasites at a clinical level. However, it had gone unnoticed in previous studies. The parasite is geographically and taxonomically widespread in fish species around the planet, with implications for commercial fishing and oceanic food webs.
As part of a commitment to help protect coastal communities and marine life, Rosenstiel School doctoral student Peisen Tan studies the dynamics of waves powered for storms.
University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science’s Rescue a Reef coral restoration program celebrates World Ocean Day with a new coral restoration site creating over a thousand coral colonies
During its decade-long existence, Rosenstiel School’s 75-foot-long hurricane simulator has helped usher in a wave of international scientists and cutting-edge projects—from hybrid coral reefs to ocean-tracking devices.
In his first commencement address, featured speaker and climate scientist Ben Kirtman stressed that graduate students’ perseverance and ability to show compassion will help guide their future careers.
A team of University of Miami scientists and others recently spent weeks in the Arctic region studying marine cold-air outbreaks and how the clouds they produce can lead to extreme weather events and may be interacting with the rapidly warming Arctic.
Findings could change how carbon isotopes are used to study the global ocean
Analysis of mooring observations and hydrographic data suggest the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation deep water limb in the North Atlantic has weakened. Two decades of continual observations provide a greater understanding of the Earth’s climate regulating system.
