In this new Limnology and Oceangraphy:Mehthods paper, the reproducibility of oxygen isotopes measurements made using two different technques (IRMS & CRDS) is confirmed

Dal's Transatlantic Ocean System Science and Technology (TOSST) summer school took grad students to West Africa to learn about how communities interact with the marine environment.

The Dalhousie CERC team has recently successfully performed a test of the moored profiling device known at the SeaCycler. After a large over haul which included a complete redesign of several major components it completed a total of 27 profiles in the 70 m deep Bedford basin.

After undergoing a dramatic makeover in a Dal lab, a one-of-a-kind ocean-based observatory known as the SeaCycler is planning to make its maiden voyage to the volatile Labrador Sea later this summer.

CERC OST & IORE are partnering to develop a low-cost profiler for coastal shallow waters capable of measuring temperature, pressure, particle back-scattering, chlorophyll fluorescence and solar irradiance.

Just how much do Nova Scotia's youth know about our oceans? That's what a team of Dal researchers — including student Haley Guest — sought to find out.
