Life and Death in the Deep Ocean: Professor Tracey Sutton (GHOC, NOVA SE U)

The club is honored to have Professor Tracey Sutton speak about his research. He is the director and lead principal investigator of the "Deep Pelagic Nekton Dynamics Consortium (DEEPEND)",  Guy Harvey Oceanographic Center, Halmos College of Natural Sciences and Oceanography, Nova Southeastern University.  "Life and Death in the Deep Ocean" will detail what happens in the "dark" ocean that we never visit, and why it is so important.  This will be a fascinating talk that U will not want to miss. Plus great food and drinks at Shenanigans East Side Pub at a very reasonable price, awesome company, and free door prizes.  cheers, arthur

Follow DEEPEND's Trickle of Tweets

Follow DEEPEND on twitter with the hashtags #scaryfish and #DEEPEND from now until Halloween!

Talk about awesome Halloween Costumes. Humans have got NOTHING on these wonders of the deep. That’s right, every day creatures like this are doing what they do – swimming around in the deepest parts of our oceans. The diversity of these deep sea animals is something truly remarkable – how they’ve adapted to their surroundings and the status of their marine environments are things we’re studying at DEEPEND. So when you go to your Halloween party, see if anyone is dressed like a Dragonfish or a Fangtooth – now that would be really cool!

 

Florida Branch of the American Society for Microbiology Presentation

NSU MS graduate student Lindsay Freed presented preliminary DEEPEND angler fish symbyosis data in the poster, "Characterization of Bacterial Symbionts within Anglerfish and Seawater from the Northern Gulf of Mexico " at the recent annual meeting of the Florida Branch of the American Society for Microbiology. The University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine Sciences (RSMAS) played host to about 125 scientists (mostly students) for a day and half of talks and posters.

 

Update 10-21-16: Science in the Sun - Save the Date!

October 21-22, 2016

Planning is underway for the 6th Annual St. Petersburg Science Festival, a regional celebration where families and the public can explore the wonders of hands-on science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM). The 2016 festival will be held on October 21-22, along the waterfront campus of the University of South Florida St. Petersburg. The event is held in conjunction with MarineQuest, the annual open house of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's Fish and Wildlife Research Institute.

DEEPEND will be represented at the Festival so stay tuned for details.

UPDATE: 10/21/16

Day 1 of the St. Pete Science Festival has just ended!  Students from Pinellas county joined us for the day going through  "mini lessons" to learn about what the DEEPEND team does.  We had 10 very enthusiastic groups come by and everyone had fun while learning!

The public is invited to join DEEPEND and the rest of the festival tomorrow during day 2 of the event!  Doors are open from 10-4pm.  Stay tuned for more pictures from tomorrow's excitement!
