Robert works with the Molecular and Environmental Microbiology group as a laboratory and field technician. He assists with [...]Fifty-Five Days at Sea: Collecting Oceanographic Data from Brazil to Iceland
On May 9, a team of scientists aboard the NOAA Ship Ronald H. Brown arrived at their final destination in Reykjavik, Iceland following 55 days at sea. The team of 50 scientists and 28 crew members followed a track through the North Atlantic, from Brazil to Iceland, referred to as the A16N transect, and successfully completed 150 stations, collecting over 3,000 samples from the Atlantic’s surface to the seafloor, giving scientists a holistic snapshot of the Atlantic Ocean basin.
NOAA Scientists Publish a New River Chemistry and Discharge Dataset for U.S. Rivers
A new river chemistry and discharge dataset for U.S. coasts has been released. A recent publication by scientists at NOAA’s Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML), Northern Gulf Institute (NGI), and NOAA’s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) provides a river chemistry and discharge dataset for 140 U.S. rivers along the West, East, and Gulf of America coasts, based on historical records from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. This dataset will be very useful for regional ocean biogeochemical modeling and carbon chemistry studies.
Port of Miami Corals Remarkably Persistent
The Port of Miami is a bustling waterway with large cruise and cargo ships, ferries, fishing vessels, and recreational boats. As it turns out, this waterway is also home to a thriving coral community.
Biogeochemical-Argo Program
Biogeochemical-Argo Program Using autonomous floats to observe biogeochemical processes of the ocean SCROLL TO LEARN MORE What We Do AOML’s Biogeochemical-Argo Program is using robotic ocean floats to collect unparalleled observations across the open Gulf of America, a previously under-observed region. The Biogeochemical-Argo floats have a network of sensors that scientists are using to perform [...]AOML receives coral tree, expanding research capabilities
In collaboration with the Lirman Lab at the University of Miami (UM), NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory’s (AOML) Coral Program now has its own coral nursery tree!

Using a crowdsourcing approach to gather both published and unpublished data, scientists have determined the global bacteria patterns associated with deadly stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD).
Female Leaders Aboard the A16N GO-SHIP Cruise
In celebration of Women’s History Month, NOAA’s Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) would like to recognize two female scientists from our Ocean Chemistry and Ecosystems Division who are leaders aboard the A16N GO-SHIP (Global Ocean Ship-based Hydrographic Investigations Program) Repeat Hydrography cruise.
