Haunani Kane, a native of Kailua, Oahu is currently pursuing a PhD in Geology and Geophysics at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Haunani uses cores taken from fossil reefs, sandy coastal plains, and wetlands to reconstruct the evolution of Pacific Islands in response to changes in past sea-level. Most reef islands across the Pacific … Continued
Shellie Habel is a PhD student studying Coastal Geology at the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST), University of Hawaii at Manoa. She is part of the Coastal Geology Group, which is an affiliation of researchers, lead by Dr. Chip Fletcher, who conduct studies regarding shoreline change, carbonate geology, and coastal morphodynamics. … Continued
Kenna Harmony Rubin is a geochemist, geologist and volcanologist who works on land and at sea. In the oceans she uses visual, chemical, and sonar observations of the sea floor, as well as laboratory-based studies of rock samples collected from the sea to study active and very recent geological processes. She focuses on eruption histories … Continued
Kevin is a Seattle based freelance and commercial photographer, often found working projects in remote backcountry winter environments, underwater, outside moving vehicles, tucked away corners of the globe and busy streets of major cities. He has been shooting for over seven years, and before this was focused on video production. He isn’t all creative, in … Continued
Scott White is a geological oceanographer who uses sonars, visual observations, GIS and remote-sensing to understand the processes that shape the seabed. Specifically, he works on understanding the variety and distribution of different submerged landscapes, both in space and time. Scott and his students at the University of South Carolina develop or use computers for … Continued
Katherine (Kate) Herries was a Master’s candidate at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Her research focused on reconstructing sea level rise during the last deglaciation. She used U-Th dating techniques on Hawaiian corals to resolve the age of the glacial meltwater pulse 1a. She also analyzed the coral samples for post-mortem biogeochemical processes that … Continued

Clark Sherman is a professor in the Department of Marine Sciences at the University of Puerto Rico-Mayagüez. Clark did his graduate work at the University of Hawaii at Manoa where he studied the geology and sea-level history of Pleistocene reefs on the island of Oahu. He has continued studying the geology of both modern and … Continued
Dr. Brendan Roark is an Associate Professor in the Department of Geography at Texas A&M University. Brendan is a paleoceanographer whose research emphasis is in stable isotope biogeochemistry, trace metal analyses, and geochronology using radiocarbon and U/Th dating methods to study ocean and climate variability over the last 50,000 years. He has been doing research … Continued
