IMCS Highlights
This year's internship program (May 31 - August 6) offered a summer
research experience to 15 students who were the successful applicants
from colleges and universities all over the
USA.
Students from the winter intersession course, The Estuary in Winter, breaking the ice in the Rutgers University Marine Field Station boat basin to sample fishes in traps.
Tina Haskins, Travis Miles and Kaycee Coleman with Computer
Science and Electrical Computer
Engineering students from Rutgers
University, accompanied by RIOS,
graduate students, and summer interns
all help to deploy underwater glider on an Endurance
Line Mission at Tuckerton.
As the Gulf oil spill approaches its third month, researchers are using a
relatively new tool to track the plume: "glider" robots that use water
power to zigzag through the ocean.
The young students from the Alan Shepard Elementary School watched and questioned as staffers from the Rutgers Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences provided a briefing on the environmental crisis.
Summer student, Evan Lindsay adjusting the flow of CO2 into one of the kalwalls used to culture microalgae for oyster larvae.
Undergraduates! As one of your “spring” classes, consider 11:628:317 AQUACULTURE (3 CR.), taught by Professors Ximing Guo and Dave Bushek, Jan. 4-15, 2010 at the Haskin Shellfish Research Lab., Bivalve, NJ
On Saturday June 5, 2010, RU COOl faculty and
students took Trans-Atlantic glider down to Washington DC to kick off Ocean Week by appearing at
World Ocean Day being held in The Smithsonian’s Museum of Natural History.
Jennifer Francis, a Reseach Professor I at IMCS, left the U.S. in July 2009 with her family to spend a year sailing in the northwest Atlantic. Her website documents the trip with stories, photos, and videos. The site is password-protected -- you can request the password when prompted.
More than 75,000 visitors came to Rutgers’ campuses and enjoyed a great
day. Kids used the opportunity to graduate from the IMCS "Naval Academy" and get Chief Science Officer for Port Security Certificates. See more photos on Flickr!
