State legislators and decision-makers were at our lab Friday to release the update to Maine's 10-Year Economic Development Strategy. Our CEO, Dr. Debbie Bronk, kicked off the festivities, highlighting Bigelow's role in helping establish Maine as a hub for marine innovation!
ZOOP, There it Is! SRS John Burns captured this zooplankton party on an #NSFfunded cruise off Bermuda along with @BIOSstation, @ASUCollegeofGF, @UofSCBiology, and @NorthwesternU to study rhizarians, who steal the show in this sample despite being invisible.
It was a delight to host local fourth-graders from Boothbay Region Elementary School for an action-packed visit this month. They toured the lab, met with researchers, and even extracted DNA from strawberries! Thanks to the researchers and teachers who made it all possible.
The instructors and participants of our Bioinformatics of Microbial Single Cells Workshop earlier this month got here just in time for a powerful ice storm, which wiped put power and road access, but just one look at this crew and it’s clear that no one backed down!
Happy Earth Day! Earth’s surface is over 70% ocean, which drives our climate, gives us the air we breathe, and holds untold potential. Between now and World Ocean Day on June 8, all new and increased contributions to our lab will be doubled! Donate today: bigelow.org/donate
CTD Sunrise: Julia Brown and Tim D’Angelo are aboard @SchmidtOcean’s Falkor (too) on a cruise in collaboration with Maria Pachiadaki from @WHOI to sample microbes that live in oxygen minimum zones. Here Tim is working with Annabelle Adams-Beyea, a former Bigelow Laboratory REU!
Bowdoin on Bowditch: This week we had the pleasure of taking @BowdoinCollege’s Oceanography class out on a bluebird day. The cruise made multiple stops along Quahog Bay to collect water samples with a CTD. Sunshine or not, it’s always great to get students on the water.
Ocean on Tap continues TOMORROW NIGHT (April 18) as Postdoc Yasmina Shah Esmaeili & Ph.D. candidate Shane Farrell talk about the many creative methods they’ve used to study Maine’s kelp forests at Footbridge Brewery in Boothbay Harbor from 6-7. Be there with (diving) bells on!
A team of researchers from Bigelow Laboratory looked at the history of surprising oceanographic events in the Gulf of Maine and found a higher number than expected. Learn why this matters for policymakers and coastal communities alike: ow.ly/RYth50Rgx28 📷 NASA
Salamander Season: This week, SRS John Burns headed into the field with the AP Bio Science class at Boothbay Region High School for a salamander egg and spermatophore expedition! Fun was had, egg masses were found, minds were blown. For more on his work: ow.ly/2zHu50RfcNF
I do think about lobster most of the time, but I am in good company with many amazing researchers in Maine @BigelowLab @DowneastInstitute @MaineDMR youtube.com/watch?v=USXeKf…
Our VPR in DC: VP for Research Beth Orcutt (@DeepMicrobe) was in Washington last month to participate in a panel exploring the environmental, technological, and policy challenges around deep-sea mining. Check out her remarks: ow.ly/9YHA50Rc9NO 📷: Carolyn Weis/ICCF
Led by researchers at Bigelow Laboratory, a multi-institutional team spanning the U.S. have developed a new method for linking the genetics and activity of individual microbes living without oxygen deep below Earth’s surface. Learn more: ow.ly/ebEa50R9rib
Total Eclipse of the Plankton: Studies have shown that rapid shifts in light, like the upcoming eclipse, can trigger the usually nocturnal upward migration of plankton from the dark depths to the surface, making it a particularly special occasion for predators that feed on them!
A recent study of Maine organic dairy farmers showed that despite some of the pressures they are facing (like labor shortages and rising costs), they are open to using seaweed feed as a method to cut down on methane emissions. Learn more: ow.ly/vWQR50R8S2q
SEA Maine is connecting smart, hardworking fisherfolk, ocean farmers, and entrepreneurs to create opportunities for growth and resilience. If you’re looking to be part of Maine’s blue economy check out this series of videos on their careers page: seamaine.org/careers/
Ferrous Questions: A team of researchers from Bigelow Laboratory have started putting numbers on some of the uncertainties surrounding the use of ocean iron fertilization as a method of carbon dioxide removal. Read the story: ow.ly/yrKG50R5M3g
Last month, SRS Steve Archer was in Germany as part of the international research project, Ocean Alk-Align which explores the ambitious but promising possibility of altering the chemistry of ocean water to absorb more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. ow.ly/FsR950R55fw
Maine’s Underwater Forests: Senior Research Scientist Doug Rasher is speaking about the importance of the kelp forests of the Gulf of Maine at Boothbay Region Land Trust next Wednesday, April 3 from 10-11:00 a.m. Free but space is limited. Register at bbrlt.org/events
Lauren Valenzuela, a senior at Northwest Missouri State University, spent 14 weeks living on our campus and getting hands-on experience in our lab and on the water as part of our Sea Change Semester. Read NMSU's story about her experience here: ow.ly/masq50R3CUQ
