Dr. Matt McIlvin is an analytical chemist at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution working in the Saito lab. On this cruise he will be helping with trace metal rosette, CTD, and large volume pump deployments to collect samples for metaproteomics and trace metals analysis. Matt received his Ph.D. in analytical chemistry from the University of … Continued
Conall is a currently a biology major in his senior year at Temple University. His ongoing research project at Temple involves ocean acidification and the physiological responses of the cold-water coral Lophelia pertusa. This is Conall’s first scientific research cruise and he is excited to gain a lot of experience at sea. On board the … Continued
Jay is a 5th year Ph.D. student in the Biology Department at Temple University. His research focuses on the effects of ocean acidification (OA) on the cold-water coral Lophelia pertusa. Jay is interested in how OA affects calcification and other physiological processes, and hopes to expand this line of research in his future academic career. … Continued
Two action packed days have passed since the Falkor left port on Saturday evening. Despite a shifted storm track, the ship remains outside the most severe weather associated with Tropical Storm Isaac. The ship is currently ‘sneaking up’ behind the storm and heading towards the first ROV dive site, having avoided the storm’s track over … Continued
The results from our Video Plankton Recorder (VPRII) continue to please researchers aboard the first Falkor shakedown cruise. “We made our daily stop for a CTD cast and a plankton net tow, and the VPR was redeployed easily in calm seas,” said Dr. Cabell Davis, the mission’s Chief Scientist. “With three successful plankton tows for … Continued
Since leaving Newcastle, U.K. we have been running the Falkor’s various acoustic systems constantly to get a full understanding of the vessel’s acoustic capabilities, as well as some test dips of the Video Plankton Recorder (VPRII) – an underwater microscope capable of capturing images of ocean microorganisms and quantifying them. Whilst operating on the continental … Continued
