Research Interests: Faculty Research in the School of Marine Sciences covers a wide range of topics... from the biology of specific organisms to the ecology, chemistry, geology and physics of the ocean itself. Below are summaries just a few of the research programs our faculty are involved in. (Specific research interests are discussed on the pages of the individual facult y.) Gulf of Maine ECOHAB: Ecology and Oceanography of Harmful Algal Blooms Professors David Townsend Neal Pettigrew and Andrew Thomas are part of a team of 16 scientists from 11 institutions studying "red tides" in the Gulf of Maine. The University of Maine part of the project is focused on Gulf-wide oceanographic phenomena that appear to control the distributions and seasonal abundances of the toxic dinoflagellate Alexandrium tamarense , which is the culprit behind New England's seasonal outbreaks of Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (commonly called red tides). The first year field work, which included 3 major oceanographic cruises, was completed last August.

Acciardo Titanic Discoverer Dr. Robert Ballard Joins URI Faculty Establishes New Institute for Deep-Sea Archeology NARRAGANSETT, R.I. Marine scientist and explorer Robert Ballard, who discovered the resting place of the Titanic and the German battleship Bismarck and who was one of the discoverers of spectacular hydrothermal vents on the ocean floor, has been appointed to the faculty at the University of Rhode Island's internationally acclaimed Graduate School of Oceanography. His appointment takes effect July 1. In returning to his alma mater, where he earned a Ph.D. in marine geology in 1974, Ballard will establish an institute for deep-sea archeology to continue his exploration and research for archeological and other human cultural remains on the ocean floor. His responsibilities at the Graduate School of Oceanography will also include involvement with graduate and undergraduate courses, advising students, and participating in the University's outreach activities. "Bob's return to the University of Rhode Island will give our students the unique opportunity to work side-by-side with one of the most important of modern American explorers," said URI President Robert L. Carothers. "Drawing upon the strengths of URI, Bob will be able to enrich and expand his research and create an even greater and lasting legacy."

Research Fellowships for Community College Instructors The Center for Clouds, Chemistry and Climate (C ), located at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego, announces 1999 Research Fellowships for visiting community college instructors. Introduction to the Center for Clouds, Chemistry and Climate C strives to reach several objectives from the National Science Foundation, including advancing scientific research, promoting education from K-12 to postgraduate levels, and facilitating technology transfer. The Center's current research focuses on the roles of aerosols and clouds, and on their combined interactions with global climate change. C scientists develop theoretical, observational, and modeling bases required to understand and predict changes in climate due to natural and anthropogenic activities. In addition, C collaborates with interested national and international universities, mission agencies and national laboratories. Through educational outreach efforts, the Center also helps to promote a new generation of students capable of addressing fundamental issues in the area of global change. This summer fellowship program, for example, will enable community college instructors to bring C research ideas directly to undergraduates.

Weather: National Victoria NSW ACT ... Next Chapter INTERNATIONAL METEOROLOGICAL ACTIVITIES WMO Contribution Multilateral Activities Meeting Australia's international obligations Bilateral Activities OBJECTIVE To meet Australia's international obligations, advance Australia's interests and support the operations and services of the Bureau through participation in international meteorology. OUTPUT Effective Australian participation in the various constituent bodies, programs and activities of the World Meteorological Organization including the provision of data, products and services to overseas National Meteorological Services and overseas user communities; along with participation in the international meteorological and related programs of other international organisations; and bilateral cooperation with other advanced countries and bilateral cooperation with, and assistance to, developing country National Meteorological Services in the South West Pacific. OUTCOME International cooperation and goodwill including the benefits of global meteorological cooperation under the Convention of the World Meteorological Organization and related international meteorological treaties and agreements. Meteorology is one of the most inherently international of all fields of science and human endeavour and international cooperation plays a vital role in the operation of the Bureau, enabling it to draw on, and benefit from, scientific, technological and operational developments and expertise in other countries while contributing, within its own capability, to the effectiveness of the total international effort from which all countries benefit. This helps to ensure that the Australian community receives the best services possible within the limitations of available resources and the international state of the art in meteorological science and technology.

OCEANOGRAPHY Carolina Coastal Science http://www.ncsu.edu/coast Carolina Coastal Science is an innovative, inquiry-based, science resource that utilizes the interactive technologies of the World Wide Web to explore science in coastal Carolina. Carolina Coastal Science has been created based on the goals stated in the National Science Education Standards. While this web site has been designed specifically for an Environmental Science component of a primary and secondary science curricula, it may be used in different curriculum areas. Teachers and students can use this web site independently or as a class using a number of different teaching strategies including open-ended inquiries, guided inquiries, independent research, and cooperative group learning. Carolina Coastal Science contains an interactive photojournal that students can use to construct their own set of inquiry questions to explore; an inquiry simulation in which students investigate the issues concerning the fate of the Shell Island Resort and then debate the future of this and other oceanfront structures threatened by coastal erosion; a section of "Inquiry Images" which can be used as whole class guided inquiry activities; and a Coastal Research Technology section that students can use to identify the scientific instruments used by oceanographers and coastal geologists to collect data. An educators guide is provided with a variety of teaching suggestions to incorporate this site into primary and secondary school classrooms.
