This study addresses to what degree can we predict how the development of offshore wind (OSW) might alter the distribution of zooplankton, the major food source for migrating whales along the northeast coastline. The study highlights many of the difficulties and the need for localized field efforts sampling along a...
Animals often need to search for food, especially in the ocean were food can be patchy and can move based on the ocean currents. This study related the base of the food web (phytoplankton), Antarctic krill to the locations of GPS radio-tagged penguins. Using the data allowed the team document...
We are excited to share that the Pohnpei State, Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), Food Security Policy and Food Production Master Plan, that our Rutgers team (along with the New York Botanic Garden!) developed over the past three years in concert with our Pohpneian partners was endorsed by the prior and current...

The Sentinel Mission: A global mission of community and exploration
The Sentinel Mission will try to circumnavigate the global ocean following nautical rules by an underwater robot. The goal is to demonstrate new technology developed by Teledyne Marine Inc and promote curiosity of the ocean planet. The mission will use the newly developed Teledyne Marine’s Sentinel autonomous underwater vehicle. Our our goal is to build global unity, contribute scientific discoveries, and inspire a sustainable relationship with our world’s oceans.
