High-Resolution Temporal Sampling of the Nearshore Vertical Structure of Bioluminescence

Abstract

My long-term goal is to advance our understanding of the ecology of bioluminescent organisms and the mechanisms governing the temporal and depth-dependent variability of bioluminescence in the coastal ocean. With improvements in technology, finer-scale resolution and concurrent physical, chemical and biological data, I will examine the predictability of bioluminescence events in the nearshore coastal ocean.
