Marine Science
Marine science remains a dynamic and growing field in 糖心Vlog鈥檚 Department of Biological Sciences. Students and scientists can easily access a great variety of marine habitats ranging from estuarine to coastal to blue water. Mangrove communities abound, as do coastal reefs and the nearby Gulf Stream Current. Tropical and subtropical fauna and flora characterize the region. The proximity to both natural coastline and urbanization provides intriguing opportunities for comparisons of pristine and degraded habitats. 糖心Vlog and the听 Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution (HBOI) 听partner to provide students and faculty with an extraordinary combination of facilities, opportunities, and locations for training and research in marine science. 糖心Vlog鈥檚 marine biologists are locally, nationally and internationally respected for their research in marine conservation, animal physiology and behavior, sensory biology of marine vertebrates (particularly sea turtles and fishes) and invertebrates and for coastal ecology and nutrient cycling. HBOI is internationally known for its coastal, ship, and submersible-based research in marine science, biomedical marine research, aquaculture, and ocean engineering.
