Observations of Sargassum carbon influx and biogeochemical impact in La Parguera Marine Reserve
Frontiers in Marine ScienceThe massive influx of pelagic Sargassum spp. species, also known as Sargassum inundation events (SIEs), first arrived at the Caribbean’s coastal waters in 2011. These events have been linked to hypoxia, among other ecological disturbances.

Stratified coastal ocean interactions with tropical cyclones
Nature Communications, 2016 Accurate forecasts of hurricane intensity remain problematic. Here, using an ocean observing network to inform ocean and atmospheric model simulations, the authors show that consideration of ahead-of-eye cooling improves intensity forecasts.

Enhanced ocean observational capability [PDF]
, 2000 Coastal oceans are vital to world health and sustenance. Technology that enables new observations has always been the driver of discovery in ocean sciences. In this context, we describe the first at sea deployment and operation of an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICPMS) for continuous measurement of trace elements in seawater.

Observing the Oceans Acoustically [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 Acoustics play a central role in humankind’s interactions with the ocean and the life within. Passive listening to ocean “soundscapes” informs us about the physical and bio-acoustic environment from earthquakes to communication between fish. Active acoustic probing of the environment informs us about ocean topography, currents and temperature, and ...
