Some powerful video shared by the United Farm Workers union shows workers continuing to harvest the strawberry fields in Ventura County, despite heavy smoke coming from the Hughes Fire burning near Castaic.
A powerful image showing how our food gets from farm to table.

My BIOL 424 Marine Phys Lab visited Holdfast Aquaculture today to learn about the process of making oyster and mussel “seed.” This semester we focus on food sustainability to mitigate climate change. Thanks Holdfast for showing us around!
8PM EDT: This is nothing short of astronomical. I am at a loss for words to meteorologically describe you the storms small eye and intensity. 897mb pressure with 180 MPH max sustained winds and gusts 200+ MPH. This is now the 4th strongest hurricane ever recorded by pressure on this side of the world. The eye is TINY at nearly 3.8 miles wide. This hurricane is nearing the mathematical limit of what Earth's atmosphere over this ocean water can produce.
Ignite curiosity. 🌊
Biology major Claribel Alcantar ’23 knew she wanted to pursue a STEM career, but it wasn’t until she met @SeaverLMU Prof. Christina Vasquez (@mcvasquez) that she found her place in her field – and soared: https://t.co/eNwdqEsPj1

I shared my labs work on osmotic tolerance in mussels at #wsn2023 . I was also the Chair of the DEIC, we hosted a symposium, mixers, and mentorship program. It was great to celebrate our achievements by dancing and getting silly on the last night. Until next year in Portland!
LMU students shared their research at the 2023 Western Society of Naturalist Conference! The Vasquez and Bittick Lab students presented on sea grass and mussel physiology. Great job everyone!
@DrSeaBove I just did an urchin lab where we tested the effect of temperature on urchin feeding rate. Students determined anatomical feeding structures, quantifies feeding, body quality, gonad index. It was a good lab and they liked handling the urchins.
