Since 1978, NASA has built, launched, and operated remote sensing satellites that orbit the Earth to better understand our home planet—which is over 70 percent ocean. In the past 40 years, we have learned so much by looking at the ocean from orbit in space. While we still have much to discover in our oceans … Continued

Informal Cruise Report: Eddy Exploration and Ecosystem Dynamics
You might not expect to find snails, sponges, or worms in the emergency room or medicine cabinet, but they are often a surprising source of lifesaving drugs. Marine organisms – mostly those from accessible shallow waters – have enabled the discovery of more than 30,000 new molecules with potential medical applications. And as we begin … Continued
Steve is a PhD candidate in the Department of Biology at Temple University. He is broadly interested in the ecology of deep-sea corals. His dissertation research focuses on how deep-sea water masses and abiotic factors influence coral diversity and distribution across depth, particularly on isolated seamounts. Steve has participated as a scientist at sea as … Continued
As part of Dr. Chris Roman’s lab group, Ben Grassian uses remote sensing (imaging and acoustic) platforms to describe biological communities and associated processes in the midwater environment. He is currently developing tools to derive relevant information from these systems to interrogate the complex linkages between local hydrography and organismal habits in a region of … Continued
The deep sea is home to a variety of understudied, otherworldly ecosystems that are in need of human understanding if they are to have any protection from encroaching deep sea fishing and mining activities. These systems support the global marine environment though habitat creation, nutrient cycling, and maintenance of biodiversity. However, they also happen to … Continued
