Rainy Tropics Could Face Unprecedented Droughts as an Atlantic Current Slows

  • by Yvaine Ye and Greg Watry
  • August 05, 2025
Some of the rainiest places on Earth could see their annual precipitation nearly halved if climate change continues to alter the way ocean water moves around the globe.

  • July 23, 2025
  • People and Programs
UC Davis graduate student Elisabeth Sellinger traveled to France as part of the French American Doctoral Exchange (FADEx) Program in Marine Science. From lab visits in Paris and Brest to presenting at the One Ocean Science Congress in Nice, she explored international collaborations, connected with fellow ocean researchers, and even gave her biggest talk yet, just one hour after stepping off the train!

Researching Corals in Bodega Bay?

  • by Lila Magbilang
  • June 30, 2025
  • Research and Impacts
What do you picture when you think of the California coast? Perhaps it’s the redwood-covered bluffs that plummet down to crashing waves, or the forests of kelp swaying along with the current. But the one thing that might not have come to mind has a surprising presence at UC Davis’ Bodega Marine Laboratory (BML): corals.

Marine ecology meets climate modelling

  • by Jessica Bolin and Mikaela Provost
  • June 29, 2025
  • People and Programs
In early June 2025, CMSI sponsored a hands-on workshop at Bodega Marine Laboratory focused on using R to wrangle and analyze Earth System Model (ESM) output (AKA climate models).

Massive Burps of Carbon Dioxide Led to Oxygen-less Ocean Environments in the Deep Past

  • by Greg Watry
  • June 27, 2025
  • Research and Impacts
New research from the University of California, Davis, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Texas A&M University reveals that massive emissions, or burps, of carbon dioxide from natural earth systems led to significant decreases in ocean oxygen concentrations some 300 million years ago.
