I wish people could understand that the ocean is not just a massive amount of salt water, but rather it's a living system. What we put into the ocean changes the chemistry of not just the ocean, but of the planetary functions as a whole. @TIME

16 years ago today, amidst the rain and the tears,
Roger Federer completed his career Grand Slam.
The one Federer win I wouldn't trade for anything.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Here's a toast to good research, good people, and good progress for marine science. We from the UP MSI admin will always be here to support you, Mandaragat.
Let's keep diving into the depths of marine science in 2025 and onwards.
What is the recipe for success in your lab? When chemistry laureate Carolyn Bertozzi receives this question, this is what she replies:
“My lab has always been known as a welcoming place for folks who might think of themselves as being kind of minoritised. I always thought that this was my not so hidden superpower. People have asked me many times over the years: what was the recipe for success for you in your lab? It was very simple. It was diversity. Now I think being recognised with a Nobel Prize is the best validation I could ever have to reflect on the power of that diversity.”

This season of giving, may the stars of the ocean navigate us through rough waters and guide us to pursue meaningful work in marine science and beyond.
Wishing everyone a merry and bright holiday season!

Ocean deoxygenation since the late 1960s has been partially mitigated by wind-driven oxygenation, particularly in the Southern Ocean. The predicted slowdown in wind intensification may therefore accelerate #ocean deoxygenation in the coming decades.

Thank you for joining us on #OceanDay at #COP16Colombia to put the ocean at the heart of the global conversation to protect the world's biodiversity.
Together, we will continue to support #OceanScience as a key lever of sustainable development.

“Your purpose as a scientist is to make discoveries and gift them to humanity. And those discoveries and that knowledge stays with humanity long after you are gone.”

Did you know that tropical seaweeds may also become sick? 🤔
Dr. Santiañez recently shared his natural history notes on the white rot disease found in wild individuals of the tropical red seaweed Halymenia durvillei (https://t.co/XkxNmXE2c7).
