Understanding the ecology, biogeochemical environment, marine conditions, and societal impacts of nearshore environments ranging from wetlands and estuaries to the edge of the continental shelf.

Join us for the 11th annual Scripps Student Symposium (SSS), a one day conference entirely run by and dedicated to Scripps students and postdocs. Launched in 2014, the Scripps Student Symposium serves ...

What is carbon dioxide and how is it connected to climate change? Carbon dioxide (CO 2) is a colorless, odorless greenhouse gas produced by numerous natural processes and by human activities such as ...

The interface between marine chemistry and marine biology, ranging from natural products chemistry and biotechnology to biogeochemistry and biochemistry relating to marine systems. Many of our ...

Focuses on the biogeochemical cycling of trace metals in marine systems. CalCOFI is a long-term, interdisciplinary, cross-sectoral ecosystem research program off the coast of California that ...

Fisheries biology and management is the study of marine environments and the monitoring and management of their living resources. The field includes ecological studies and analysis, population ...

Biochemical and physiological mechanisms of adaptation of organisms to the marine environment. Special emphasis is on biological responses to temperature, salinity, carbon dioxide, pH and bicarbonate ...

The study of the processes by which marine organisms grow and how factors such as temperature, nutrition, microbes, predators, and hormones influence development. (Green fluorescent amphioxus photo by ...
