Congrats to our lab’s newest scholar David Gonzalez Rivas from Mexico, awarded a 2023 IOCCG Trevor Platt Scholarship. “Using Ocean color data for understanding shrimp farm water discharge in the coastal ecosystems of the Gulf of California.” @UConnMarineSci@IOCCG
30 years in the making including 18 months of collating, clean up, and writing.
#GLORIA: 7572 hyperspectral reflectance spectra from inland and coastal waters from around the world

The Agulhas Current 🌀 is one of the fastest and strongest oceanic currents 〰️ in the world 🌍
It carries warm 💧♨️ Indian Ocean waters southward along the South African 🇿🇦 coast
⬇️It can be observed 🔎 in this video produced with our #CopernicusMarine 🇪🇺🌊 #MyOceanViewer
Just north of Macapá and the mouth of the Amazon River. An image that beautifully depicts what ocean color scientists would describe as optically complex: a mix of phytoplankton, sediment, organic matter, and even some clear blue waters.
Visit @ICISEconference to prepare the @OceanOpticsConf in Quy Nhon Vietnam. Amazing conference center. Looking forward to seeing the #oceancolor community in October 2-7 202#
.@NASAGoddard scientist Ryan Vandermeulen and his brother Jon Vandemeulen, a programmer, set out to do just that — to listen to the colors of the ocean. They created data sonifications by merging ocean color data with musical notes.

When you need to measure some marine-harvested plastics on a rainy day, you rig up some DIY sunshine in the lab! Graham, @UConnMarineSci grad student, is prepping to measure plastics at sea in the Pacific Ocean. @heididier
Phytoplankton, often called the “grass of the sea,” fuel ocean life by being the primary food source to other plankton, fish, and other larger creatures. Learn more about the diversity of these organisms and the crucial role they play: https://t.co/URUGAFtfVv
Goodbye to another fabulous Living Planet Symposium. You can see by my face that I had an excellent time sharing our@research on remit sending of microplastics. #LivingPlanetSymposium#nasapace
