Successful cruise with all UW folks fostering new collaborations with oceanographers and atmospheric scientists

Loading day in Davao, Mindanao, Philippines for our upcoming CRESST cruise!

Super proud of our summer intern Erin Novobilsky who presented her work today on differences in iron between two cruises to the equatorial Pacific. ☺️

We’re so proud of the UWROV team! These undergrads took top honors at the MATE ROV World Championships with their ROV, “Boxfish 2.0.” Boxfish 2.0 is helping advance #marine conservation and #climate research, as well as supporting renewable marine energy tech. environment.uw.edu/news/2025/08...

The Senate just posted the report language of its FY26 science appropriations bill. This text lays out what they want done and carries the force of law if it is included in the final spending bill. It's a line-by-line refutation of Trump's proposed budget for NASA and NOAA.

New paper out from the lab showing efficient uptake and recycling of cobalamins in the North Pacific by Jiwoon Park urldefense.com/v3/__http://...

Efficient cobalamin uptake and cycling contribute to the lack of cobalamins in the surface cobalt‐binding ligand pool in the North Pacific

Cobalt is a central component of cobalamins, which are nutrients essential for various metabolic processes in marine organisms. Dissolved cobalt in seawater is mostly bound to organic ligands, and th...
