Out on the R/V Endeavor for expedition EN731, exploring methane seeps on the Atlantic Margin with AUV Sentry.

These seeps reveal some of the most active, fascinating spots on the seafloorβ€”and Sentry’s been crushing it with high-res imaging and sensor dives

U.S. Atlantic Margin Seeps Exploring cold seeps off the East Coast of North America

I am currently on a NSF supported research expedition investigating deep-sea natural gas seeps just off the US East Coast. My collaborators and I are working around the clock to document these enigmatic features and the influence they have on seafloor biodiversity, chemistry, geology, and resources.

Humanity depends on the ocean β€” Here is what we need to prioritize for immediate ocean science research Global ocean research needs to shift priorities to ensure the health and well-being of our oceans, and by extension, humanity.

I'm pleased to share this article written by co-authors & me.

Riffing off our recent decadal survey, we discuss humanity's relationship with the ocean & why immediate action is needed to protect us all. Enjoy! @whoi.edu @schmidtocean.bsky.social @mbarinews.bsky.social

Volcanic Eruption in Deep Ocean Ridge Is Witnessed by Scientists for First Time Researchers diving in a submersible in the eastern Pacific realized that the landscape they had studied the day before had been glassed over by fresh lava.

Exclusive: NSF stops awarding new grants and funding existing ones US science funder also plans to screen grant applications for compliance with β€˜agency priorities’.

I am a scientist and an educator. I cannot believe that everything so many of us have dedicated our adult lives to is being destroyed - burned down - for no reason other than knowledge imperils their vision of the future. This must be reversed. Pls share widely!
