Announcements

I
am currently looking for
graduate students (M.S. or Ph.D.)
If you are interested in
bioacoustics, zooplankton
ecology,
or any of the other projects described on these pages, please contact
Joe.

Recent presentations about the lab's research were made at the 18th
Biennial meeting of the Society
for Marine Mammalogy in Quebec, Canada and at the 158th Meeting of
the Acoustical Society of America in
San Antonio, Texas. Thankfully I'm done with travel for a few months (I
think).
Prof. Peterson and I are gearing up for this
year's winter term course MAR
388: Tropical Marine Ecology (read last year's course blog).
Congratulations to former lab
member, Krissy Forman who's work for her masters thesis on the
variability of material properties of zooplankton and nekton was
accepted for publication in
the ICES Journal of Marine Science.
The Warren Lab had a successful field season
in Spring 2009 in Cape Cod. We are studying the
relationships between zooplankton and their baleen whale predators.
Graduate student Joy Smith and I both
presented posters at the Alaska
Marine Science Symposium held in Anchorage, Alaska in January 2009.
It was surprisingly mild (temperature-wise) but the meeting was very
productive.

Attention Stony Brook
undergraduate marine science majors:
I am looking for students to
assist in the analysis of dolphin vocalization recordings. You may be
able to receive academic credit for conducting research in my lab. If
interested, please contact me.

The
Warren Lab spent part of the 2008
summer in the Bering Sea participating in a NMFS' Alaska
Fisheries Science Center research cruise conducting trawl and
acoustic surveys on the
walleye pollock. Our focus was on collecting measurements to improve
models of Bering Sea
euphausiid target strengths. This research is supported by
NOAA.
2008 summer student Lauren Bohrer studied
gas production from submerged aquatic
vegetation. She was a participant in SoMAS's Research Experience for
Undergraduate program.
Congratulations to incoming graduate
student, Joy
Smith, whose presentation at the ASA meeting in New Orleans on her
summer research from 2006 was awarded
"Best Student Presentation" in Animal Bioacoustics session. Great job
Joy!
Check out some summaries of what
folks are currently
working on as well as past projects.
Our research (in conjunction with Dave
Demer and others) on the
Livingston Island Nearshore Krill Ecosystem Study (LINKES)
now has its own web-page ! Stay tuned for results as we
process and analyze
the data.
