Please join us on Zoom for the Marine Biology seminar. Dr. Jennifer Jacquet (New York University) will present 'A consumer approach to fisheries conservation: social theory, science, and values.'
Abstract: The first ocean-related label was the ‘dolphin-safe’ logo for tuna in 1990. Since then, a suite of sustainability efforts have targeted seafood consumers, including the most prominent eco-label for fish, the Marine Stewardship Council’s blue tick. We will…
Please join us on Zoom for the Marine Biology seminar. Dr. Mary Donovan (Arizona State University) will present 'Interactions between local and global stressors on coral reefs.'
Abstract: There is often a mismatch between the scales at which human impacts threaten ecosystems and those at which management and policy are implemented. To develop more effective and strategic management of social-ecological systems, we need a better understanding of the scales over which human impacts interact with ecological complexity. I will present evidence that climate…

Geno Pawlak - Flow and transport on tropical coasts
The dynamics of flows in tropical coastal environments are distinct from temperate coasts in a number of ways. Tropical coasts are often characterized by steep, complex bathymetry and high roughness. In addition surface buoyancy fluxes can be…
Please join us on Zoom for the Marine Biology seminar. Drs. Gabby Ahmadia (World Wildlife Fund) and David Gill (Duke University) will present 'Knowledge co-production in marine conservation: working across NGOs and academia.'
Please join us on Zoom for the Marine Biology seminar. Dr. Nicole Ratib (University of Southern California) will present 'Genomic and physiological characterization of Escherichia coli evolving in long-term batch culture.'
Abstract: In most natural environments, bacteria spend much of their time under conditions of starvation and stress. Long-term batch cultures are an excellent laboratory system to study adaptation during nutrient stress because cells are incubated for relatively long periods of time, months to years, without the addition of nutrients. During…
Nortek will present how its products have been used to address a wide range of applications, from turbulence in shallow water, to biomass estimation in Antarctica, to wave measurements in the tropics, to sediment dynamics in shipping channels, and much more (yes, including profiling currents).
The committee for UC San Diego’s Understanding and Protecting the Planet initiative invites members of the UC San Diego community to a virtual webinar that will explore how to connect people working in climate and environmental justice across UC San Diego.
Event Dates: Monday, May 24 from 3-5pm, and Tuesday, May 25 from 4-6pm

Weekly CASPO Seminar: join us on Zoom every Wednesday at 3:30 pm to hear about the latest and greatest in Climate, Atmospheric Sciences, and Physical Oceanography!
Professor Kimberly Strong, the current Chair of the Department of Physics at the University of Toronto, will give a talk titled The Polar Environment Atmospheric Research Laboratory: Probing the atmosphere of the high Arctic at 80N.
The High Arctic is a bellwether for global climate change, a receptor for…
Weekly CASPO Seminar: join us on Zoom every Wednesday at 3:30 pm to hear about the latest and greatest in Climate, Atmospheric Sciences, and Physical Oceanography!
Dr. Robert Todd, Scripps alumnus and current Associate Scientist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, will give a talk titled Gliders in the Gulf Stream: New insights from sustained observing.
The Gulf Stream is a key part of the Earth's climate system, carrying heat poleward as part of the Atlantic Meridional…
