Seminar: Monday, October 2, 2023

Climate Change Impacts on Reef Fish Spawning Aggregations: Bottlenecks, Tradeoffs, Climate Refugia, and Management Implications: Most projections of how climate change affect species distributions and phenology are based on a species’ most conspicuous life stage. However, not all life stages are equally sensitive to temperature. Among fishes, spawning adults often have narrower thermal tolerances than other life stages and may constrain…


Seminar: Monday, September 18th, 2023

Thinking beyond carbon to better understand marine organic matter reactivity: Sources and distribution of non-volatile halogenated organic matter in the ocean Marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) is one of Earth’s major carbon reservoirs and is arguably its most dynamic. On the other hand, radiocarbon measurements suggest that majority of marine DOM is stored for millennia in the deep ocean as refractory dissolved organic carbon (RDOC). Thus,…
