The Rynearson and Menden-Deuer labs at the University of Rhode Island’s Graduate School of Oceanography invite applications to fill a Postdoctoral Researcher position focused on investigating the metabolic response of microzooplankton to food availability as part of the NASA EXPORTS program.Responsibilities and Duties: The overall aim of the grant is to understand the role of Read More …
Susanne as an instructor and Jacob as a student are in Hong Kong as part in the Croucher Foundation summer course, Climate Change and Marine ecosystems .
Pierre, Heather and Susanne, attended the OCB summer workshop last week in Woods Hole, MA. From organization to session topics, the meeting was fantastic. Pierre shared a poster with preliminary data from the NES LTER and Heather shared data from EXPORTS. All posters and presentations from the meeting can be found in the link above.
June 21 marked Amanda’s ten-year anniversary as lab manager in the Menden-Deuer lab. Amanda has contributed to all major projects in the lab and has been a key part of training and helping an astounding number of students in all phases of academia. Hoary for the next decades!
Françoise traveled to Virgin for a NAAMES data science meeting. She shared findings that synthesized the four-cruise campaign to assess the role of microzooplankton in bloom formations in the N. Atlantic. Françoise has been a manuscript writing machine, keep an eye out for freshly published NAAMES related papers.
We’re very excited to have Nicole join us for the summer as an NSF REU/SURFO. She will be working on designing and implementing an experiment that will further our understanding of plankton ecology.
Check out the first of two episodes that features some of the science mission behind the North Pacific EXPORTS cruise. https://vimeo.com/331583198
Dr. Gayantonia crossed the Atlantic just in time for spring in Norway. She joins the Havforskningsinstituttet as a plankton researcher. In her free time in Arendal, it’s assumed that she will befriend a talking snowman and reindeer and save the world.
The RI CAIM conference brought together researchers from around RI who share a passion for understanding our local land-sea interface: Narragansett Bay. Jacob and Françoise shared their research relevant for understanding plankton abundance, distribution and population dynamics, fundamental drivers of major chemical cycles.
