Demystifying the complex nature of Arctic clouds
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.
Carbon isotopes from phytoplankton vary with depth, study finds
Findings could change how carbon isotopes are used to study the global ocean
Warming of Antarctic deep-sea waters contribute to sea level rise in North Atlantic, study finds
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.
Groundbreaking study reveals extensive Leatherback turtle activity along U.S. coastline
Study is the first to identify the U.S. Atlantic coast as a significant region of feeding grounds for endangered leatherbacks migrating along the east coast of the United States.
Depth-defying scientific explorations
Marine biologist Richard Coleman has gone to extremes to study the migration patterns of certain fish species in many unexplored regions of the ocean.
Flying into the cold unknown
Rosenstiel School scientist Paquita Zuidema is a principal investigator of a multi-agency team to investigate cold air outbreaks in the Arctic.
Professor awarded prestigious honor for contributions to physiology
Professor Martin Grosell receives 2024 Distinguished August Krogh Lectureship Award
Researchers use satellites to analyze global reef biodiversity
New technique can aid in coral reef protection and restoration efforts
New mapping method uses sustained observations to estimate AMOC at 22.5°S
Changes in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and its transport of heat can affect climate and weather patterns, regional sea levels, and ecosystems.
University of Miami professor elected Fellow of the American Meteorological Society
Paquita Zuidema honored for her contributions to atmospheric science research
South Florida’s nearshore reefs less vulnerable to Ocean Acidification, study finds
Results offer a glimmer of hope as climate change impacts coral reefs worldwide
