Science in Antarctica: The Bigger Picture

Autonomous Gliders in the Antarctic

Flying gliders is complicated and a little nerve-wracking, so why do we do it?

Environmental DNA Survey Continues in the Southern New England Wind Energy Area

Field Fresh Blog: Science in Motion

Join eDNA Program Lead Yuan Liu on a survey in the Southern New England Wind Energy Area. She uses eDNA side-by-side with passive acoustic monitoring technologies to track marine life.

Three people work on the deck of a fishing vessel. A woman on the left, with a pink winter hat, is getting a sampling bottle of about 5 litres from a man (in the middle) with sun glasses and a dark blue hoodie. Another man (on the right) is holding on to a wire while looking down at the surface of the ocean.

So Much for Boring

Boredom is the Root of All Evil … Unless You’re a Glider

Autonomous Gliders in the Antarctic

We just deployed two gliders and hope for an encore of last year’s near-flawless deployment.

Pelagic Sargassum in the Gulf of Mexico driven by ocean currents and eddies, Harmful Algae

This study uses satellite data to track the origins and transport pathways of pelagic Sargassum in the Gulf of Mexico. We found that Sargassum can come from the northwestern Gulf or be transported from the northwestern Caribbean Sea by ocean currents and eddies (circular currents). The spatial distribution of Sargassum in the Gulf is largely shaped by the Loop Current System and associated eddies.

Killer Whales in the Gulf of Mexico and North Atlantic Off the Southeastern United States

Killer whales occur in the Gulf of Mexico and the North Atlantic, including off the southeastern United States. Data from cetacean surveys during 1990–2021 and other sources were combined to assess killer whale biology, including spatial and temporal distribution, social structure, genetics, morphology, acoustics, and predatory behavior.
