An innovative research tool, designed by UM Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, division of Applied Marine Physics Assistant Professor, Dr. Claire B. Paris and Senior Research Associate Cedric Guigand is making the task possible on younger larvae as they move with currents. Dubbed the OWNFOR (Orientation With No Frame Of Reference) system, this drifting observational device, right, which resembles a kite, allows researchers to observe marine larvae naturally influenced by factors in the open ocean. The floating chamber is designed to detect and quantify the orientation of larval coral reef fish in the pelagic environment; an often pitch black void with little or no frame of reference to navigate.
The OWNFOR system is deployed at sea and drifts while videotaping the movement of a larva placed within a clear, circular arena. It will also be possible to change their immediate environment and manipulate orientation cues, such as acoustic, chemical, or magnetic fields that larvae may use to navigate. This new system will be equipped with an infrared camera that can verify the larvae's orientation at night.
Through a research grant from The Hermon Slade Foundation and a fellowship from the Australian Museum, she will be putting her new larval monitoring system to the test in early 2008. Paris and colleagues are interested in gathering data on the successful identification of larval abilities to orientate as they mature.
Working at the Lizard Island Research Station, a satellite-facility of the Australian Museum on the Great Barrier Reef, Paris will directly compare her research methods with those of Lizard Island researcher, Dr. J.M. Leis, who published his results diving and following larval fish. Researchers hope that OWNFOR will provide minimal interference in the natural migration of organisms, helping to understanding just what influences these organisms to settle on a final reef home after days or weeks in a relatively featureless open ocean landscape.
Paris earned her master's degree in biology and living resources from the Rosenstiel School, and her Ph.D. in coastal oceanography from SUNY Stony Brook's Marine Sciences Research Center. Her current research is also funded by the National Science Foundation's division of Ocean Science (OCE).
SOUNDINGS IS FOR...
Soundings is
the monthly school newsletter for faculty, students, alumni,
and staff like Laura Bracken, our new Outreach
Coordinator at the Rosenstiel School.
What
attracted you to working at the Rosenstiel School?
Originally, I came to the Rosenstiel School for a master's in Marine Affairs & Policy. The
program fit my interests and the location was perfect (after spending four
years at Penn State, a place where the sun literally disappeared for 3 months,
I needed some sunshine and palm trees.) When I graduated, I wasn't ready to
leave, so I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to stay.
Do
you have any hobbies?
I love running, rowing, snorkeling, SCUBA diving, ballet, and tap dancing.
What
is your favorite food?
Chocolate, of course.
Name
something that you absolutely could not live without.
My family. They give me strength and support, and feed my addiction for Disney.
If
you became a millionaire, what would you do next?
Travel to New Zealand, Australia, and the Amazon, then return to Thailand,
Galapagos, and Costa Rica.
If
we spend over 10 hours per day with you, what should we know
about you?
The first eight or nine hours would be spent at the Rosenstiel School being nice and
friendly, reaching out to the community, organizing events, etc. The next two to three
hours are spent yelling at 7-10th grade boys at the Miami Rowing Club, where
I coach the Novice Men's team. I sometimes feel a little schizophrenic,
but I love both jobs. And in case you care what the other 14 hours of my day
are like, I spend most of them sleeping.
AGU HONORS AMY CLEMENT
Rosenstiel School Associate Professor of Meteorology and Physical Oceanography, Dr. Amy Clement, was honored at the American Geophysical Union's annual meeting in San Francisco, CA this past December, alongside two of the author's of the Nobel Peace Prize winning IPCC report. During a black tie gala, the AGU acknowledged Clement's unique approach to climate change theories with one of their most prestigious awards, the 2007 James B. Macelwane Medal, an award reserved for outstanding young scientists in recognition of their significant contributions to geophysical sciences.
Providing new insights into how Earth's climate system operates, Clement's research studies what climate changes of the past can teach us about the future. Focusing on the tropical climate, Clement challenged previously held ideas about the driving forces behind climate change. By using computer models, she has shown that changes in El Niño were essential aspects of dramatic changes in the climate that occurred in the past. She has also extended these ideas about the role of the tropics in climate change to include variations that occurred during the 20th century, and possible future changes as well.
In January 2007, Clement was also awarded the American Meteorological Society's Meisinger Award in recognition of "research achievement that is, at least in part, meteorological in character and concerns the observation, theory, and modeling of atmospheric motions on all scales. The award is given to young promising atmospheric scientists who have recently shown outstanding ability." Clement has also been recognized by the National Science Foundation with an Early Career award, as a contributor to the IPCC 4th Assessment Report, and has served on several national and international panels.
Clement, originally from Huntington, NY, earned her bachelor's degree in physics from Columbia College at Columbia University, and doctoral degree in geological sciences also from Columbia University. Her research in recent years has been supported by grants from the National Science Foundation paleoclimate program, NASA, and NOAA.

WHITE MARLIN NEITHER THREATENED NOR ENDANGERED
NOAA has just published their determination regarding the status of white marlin as a possible endangered or threatened species, and has resolved that based on the best available scientific and commercial information on the biological status of the species and the threats it is facing, white marlin are neither endangered nor threatened. The decision comes after a decision in 2002 by the NOAA Fisheries Service that determined that an ESA listing for the species was not warranted. Prevailing concerns over the fish population led NOAA to consider white marlin a Species of Concern. Rosenstiel School investigators Drs. Beth Babcock, Bob Cowen and David Die were part of the team of national researchers invited to provide information to the NOAA review team, which aided them in making their determination.
NOAA Fisheries Service committed to conducting a new status review for the white marlin after the conclusion of the 2006 ICCAT stock assessment, at which time the white marlin showed a population increase great enough for NOAA to determine that Atlantic white marlin are not in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range, nor likely to become so in the foreseeable future.
White marlin are billfish of the Family Istiophoridae, which includes striped, blue, and black marlin; several species of spearfish; and sailfish. White marlin inhabit the tropical and temperate waters of the Atlantic Ocean and adjacent seas. Atlantic white marlin are important apex predators, feeding at the top of the food chain. Recreational fishers seek Atlantic blue marlin, white marlin, and sailfish as highly prized species in the United States, Venezuela, Bahamas, Brazil, and many countries in the Caribbean Sea and west coast of Africa.
FORESTS
PRODUCE POLLUTION, TOO
Dr. Xinrong Ren, a research associate professor of marine and atmospheric chemistry who joined the Rosenstiel School last August, has been awarded a University of Miami 2008 Summer Provost Award, which provides faculty members with a full summer research stipend. Ren's research on two important nitrogenous-based compounds in forest environments, nitrous acid and nitric acid, is shedding light on how air pollution forms from natural chemical reactions in forests.
Studies of air pollution often focus on more obvious factors affecting global climate, giving more attention to megacities like Tokyo, Mexico City and Mumbai where the effects of overpopulation, urban development and industrialization are more visible and lead to increasingly dangerous and mobile masses of atmospheric pollution. But, Ren notes that trees in forests, are known to emit their own large amounts of volatile organic compounds, while soil, similarly, emits some amount of nitrogenous compounds. With the combination of nitrogen compounds, volatile organic compounds and sunlight, air pollutants such as ozone and fine particles can be formed effectively, and thus negatively impact the quality of surrounding air.
Atmospheric nitrogen chemistry plays a key role in the formation of air pollution like photochemical smog. This summer, Ren will utilize funds from his UM Summer Provost Award to collaborate with scientists at the UC Berkeley Blodgett Forest Research Station in California. An understanding of atmospheric nitrogen chemistry, especially the chemistry of these two acids, is essential to improving our knowledge of the mechanisms involved in air pollution.
The University of Miami's Summer Provost Awards in Natural Sciences and Engineering were created to assist faculty in their research by providing funding for three consecutive summer months of full-time research or creative scholarship. Fifty-five awards were distributed among the Arts & Humanities, Business and the Social Sciences, and Natural Sciences and Engineering groups.
Ren earned his bachelor's degree in applied chemistry from Peking University in China, and a doctoral degree in environmental sciences also from Peking University. His research in recent years has been supported by grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and the U.S. EPA

LARA STUDIES A 'BIG' FLORIDA FAVORITE
In November 2007, Dr. Monica Lara, an associate scientist at the Rosenstiel School's Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS), presented her study, "The first description of post-settlement Goliath Grouper from SW Florida," at the 1st International Goliath Grouper Symposium in the Dominican Republic, part of the Gulf and Caribbean Fisheries Institute conference. As one of the most well known fish in Florida, the Goliath Grouper (Epinephelus itijara) formerly known as the Jewfish, is the largest of groupers often weighing in at around 800 lbs. These fish used to be abundant in Florida's waters, but low numbers caused a closure of the fishery and these fish can now only be caught if released alive. Despite its prominence in Florida's reef systems, little was known about the early life stages of these fish. In fact, until recently, the larvae and early juveniles of the species had not even been identified.

Beginning in 2000 as part of a study conducted by researchers of at NOAA's Southeast Fisheries Science Center and CIMAS to learn more about these important fish, older juveniles were found in the Ten Thousand Islands region of Florida and cataloged. By chance, some very young juveniles were also caught, and the collection design was altered to target these small fish. Lara identified these small fish as indeed being the youngest Goliath Grouper to ever be identified to species.
One questionable specimen of grouper collected by researchers in Pamlico Sound, North Carolina - much farther north than the grouper's normal range but accessible by many tropical fish migrating in the Gulf Stream - was sent to Lara for identification and turned out to be a very young Goliath Grouper. This is the first positive evidence of a Goliath Grouper larva existing that far north.
Lara was able to "read" the otoliths (earbones) of these specimens to determine their age in days, the length of the planktonic phase of their life, the date they settled into their benthic juvenile habitat, and by back-calculating from age and date of settlement was able to obtain the date they were spawned. Leading researchers to the discovery that most of these individuals had been spawned close to the full moon in the months from July to October. Lara's results support what has been believed about Goliath Grouper spawning as a result of different lines of evidence. Lara was also able to determine that the settlement of these fish from plankton occurred near the new moon. Her findings have important applications for the conservation and protection of the species and management decisions about fisheries policies and habitat protection.
Recently, Lara's research projects have been accepted for publication twice by the journal Marine Biology. Her work is currently published in the January 2008 issue, while another study will be featured in an upcoming edition.
STUDENT RESEARCHES SNAIL SOLUTE RECOVERY
The common pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis has been widely used by
scientists in aging and neurological studies, as well as early
work in physiology. A remarkable ability to rapidly void as much
as 60% of it blood (referred to as hemolymph in invertebrates)
in response to potential predation allow this snail to retract
deep into its shell for protection. If this behavior is successful
and the snail survives, it is faced with the challenge of recovering
not only the fluids lost but also essential solutes like Na+.
A new paper published by Sue C. Ebanks, a marine
biology and fisheries Ph.D. student at the Rosenstiel School,
is helping
scientists understand the mechanisms involved in the snail’s
recovery of essential solutes after full retraction into its
shell; a discovery that could set Lymnaea as an important
animal model for experimental biologists and water quality researchers
alike.
 |
| Ebanks examines sub-lethal sampling of snail hemolymph from Lymnaea. |
In a recent paper in the Journal of Experimental Biology, Ebanks and associate professor of marine biology and fisheries, Dr. Martin Grosell, report how Lymnaea recovered hemolymph after full retraction into its shell. Composed of extra cellular fluid (ECF) and solutes, hemolymph is essential to normal cellular function. After full retraction, a process that not only excretes 40-60% of the snail’s ECF, but also tends to immobilize it for extended periods of time, the snail must reabsorb solutes to its circulatory system from the freshwater environment.
By taking samples of the hemolymph secreted during retraction, Ebanks and Grosell determined the recovery time - the period of time during which the snail is regaining its lost solutes/osmolytes in the extracellular fluid to return to the initial concentrations of the ions or osmolytes before full withdrawal – and characterized the mechanisms involved in recovering sodium ions (Na+); the primary cationic osmolyte in this snail. What they found was that Lymnaea activate a Na+ uptake system increasing uptake rates up to 5-fold and are dependent upon a transport protein that is unique to invertebrates, and allows electrogenic sodium proton exchange for recovery after ECF loss.
Ebanks received both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in marine science from Savannah State University in Georgia. Her research is currently funded in part by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Environmental Cooperative Science Center.
CORAL CONSERVATION GETS RED CARPET TREATMENT
Corals are among the most important animals in the sea. Revered for their beauty and crucial role in providing safe areas for the growth of countless organisms, they are also among the most sensitive and threatened of all marine life. Which is why Dr. Andrew Baker, assistant professor of marine biology and fisheries at the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science is teaming up with Too Precious to Wear, a program of SeaWeb, working in collaboration with the fashion industry to create a demand for coral conservation.
Launching in New York City on January 23, Too Precious to Wear raises awareness about the threats to global coral species and works to create stronger coral protection policies. The Tiffany & Co. Foundation is the program's founding partner and is joined by actor Julia Louis-Dreyfus and other fashion leaders such as designers Lela Rose of Lela Rose, Sophie Buhai and Lisa Maycock of Vena Cava, cosmetics innovator Sylvia Chantecaille, and metalsmith designer Michael Aram of Michael Aram.
As providers of food, reproduction grounds, and safe havens from predators, corals are vital for a healthy ocean. Reef-forming corals provide habitat for 25 percent of marine fish species, and other corals offer sustenance for marine life in the deepest parts of the sea. But these beautiful creatures are in crisis. Corals are threatened by a number of diverse factors like overfishing, oil and gas exploration, invasive species, pollution and climate change.
Consumer demand has also placed corals at risk. Popular products include coral jewelry, home decor items and live animals used in home aquaria. The precious corals used in jewelry - black, blue and red corals - have suffered greatly from overfishing to meet demand for this fashion item. Corals grow so slowly that it can take decades for them to recover, if at all. At almost 3,000 years old, some individual coral animals are among the oldest living creatures on earth. Some reefs have been forming their hard structures for 40,000 years.
Catches of precious red corals, the most valuable of all coral species, provide a striking example of how demand for a fashion item can decimate a species. Red coral populations have plummeted 89 percent in the past two decades. Conscientious companies such as Tiffany & Co. removed real coral from their product lines over five years ago.
If consumer pressure on these animals is reduced, scientists believe corals will have a better chance at surviving climate change and other threats. Companies currently using real coral should remove it from their product lines and consider coral alternatives. There are many products that celebrate the beauty of the ocean without harming it, including Tiffany & Co.'s sterling silver coral motif jewelry, cultured pearls from the South Pacific, and coral-inspired home décor items from Michael Aram and the Pottery Barn. Many consumers are choosing lifestyles and products that are environmentally friendly, making it fashionable to save our ocean planet. By simply avoiding purchases of red and other corals, consumers and the fashion industry can play an important role in the ocean's recovery.

SEJ CHOOSES UM AS 2011 MEETING SITE
The board of directors for the Society of Environmental Journalists recently visited the Rosenstiel campus as part of the University of Miami's bid to host the group's 2011 conference. The conference would bring more than 1,400 reporters from all over the country to UM.
The group's visit began with a tour of main campus and the Knight Center for International Media. The journalists enjoyed a screening of the critically acclaimed documentary, "One Water" at the home of local philanthropist Lacey Hoover. The group also enjoyed a cruise aboard a mega-yacht, which included a handful of Rosenstiel School and Pew Institute researchers, who shared information about their research with the group. After the cruise, guests dined at President Shalala's house with several representatives from campus, as well as Miami Mayor Manny Diaz.
The SEJ's board meeting, which wrapped up the group's visit to Miami, was held at RSMAS in the Dean's Conference Room. On the way to the Rosenstiel School the delegation stopped briefly to talk to OHH investigators who were doing field work on Hobie Beach.
Thanks to everyone's hard work and participation, the SEJ board selected the University of Miami as the site of their 2011 meeting. Final negotiations are still pending.

FACILITIES UPDATE
WHAT'S UP DOCK?
We are pleased to inform you that the pier reconstruction
has begun. To keep the pier operational the project will
be done in two phases. During the
first phase the East Side (bridge side) half of the main deck will be cut
and replaced. Once this is completed, the West side of the main pier (bay
side) will be replaced. As part of the first phase a new dock for the Walton
Smith will be constructed adjacent and North of the existing dock. Once
this is completed, the old dock will be removed. Rosenstiel School staff
will relocate the temporary utility services to the ship as necessary and
will coordinate the required temporary supports for the saltwater intakes.
Although the pier will remain open for the ship's activities, we ask that you stay away from the active construction area. This is a hardhat area and safety glasses are required. Please avoid crossing any of the warning tape areas and do not park in the area designated for contractor use. We expect the project to be completed within six months.
B.E.A.C.H.E.S. RESEARCH STUDY SEEKS VOLUNTEERS
The University of Miami NSF NIEHS Oceans and Human Health Center, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Florida Department of Health are compiling information for their Beach Environmental Assessment and Characterization Human Exposure Study (B.E.A.C.H.E.S.). They are trying to find out to what extent people are affected by microorganisms found in bodies of water where people regularly swim and play. The purpose of the study is to find out if bathers in marine waters experience any health effects after entering the water. Similar studies have been done in Great Britain, Spain and Hungary.
To be a participant you should be in good health, a resident of Florida, at least 18 years of age, and an individual who enters marine waters for recreational purposes. That means you routinely access beaches in the area for swimming or other water-related activities (not just sunbathing).
You will be asked to complete a consent form, and a baseline health questionnaire over the phone. On one of the beach research days you will be asked to come to Hobie Beach, on Virginia Key, between 8:00 A.M. and 11:00 A.M. on one of the dates listed below. Participants will be randomly chosen to either: a) enter the water or b) remain on the beach (15 minutes). Individuals selected to enter the water for 15 minutes and will be asked to submerge their entire body three times (including head) and collect a water sample. Researchers will then schedule a time, seven days later, to call and ask a few more questions about how you feel.
There is no cost to be in this study. Individuals can expect to be at the beach for a period of approximately one hour (questionnaires take 10-15 minutes on the phone). We will pay you $75 for any costs you might have from being in our study. If you would like to participate, please call 305-421-4671 or email Jonathan Kish at jkish@rsmas.miami.edu . Please leave a message with your name, phone number with area code, and best times to call you back. Space is limited to 80 people per session.

THE LAST WORD
"The aim of science is
to seek the simplest explanation of complex facts. We are apt
to fall into the error of thinking that the facts are simple
because simplicity is the goal of our quest. The guiding motto
in the life of every natural philosopher should be 'Seek simplicity
and distrust it'."
