WELCOME

The Biological Oceanography Department addresses a variety of marine research topics including ecology, ecophysiology, environmental monitoring, biogeography and climate change in the ocean. Interdisciplinary research encompasses chemical analyses of heavy metals, molecular biology, physiology of autotrophs and heterotrophs, population dynamics, regional oceanography and remote sensing. The taxonomic spectrum of marine organisms we study ranges from microbes to marine mammals.
