  • A very large fish swims in the water with a school of smaller fish in the background. Caption: These gentle giants are goliath grouper --

    Goliath groupers are the largest of the groupers in the Atlantic basin. They were once so overfished in the Southeastern United States, they were considered for listing under the Endangered Species Act. Thankfully, a dedicated group of marine scientists worked to prompt NOAA to ban all of their harvest. This action in the early 1990s gave the grouper time to recover and gave scientists time to learn more about this fish.

  • Microscopic view of tubular structures. Caption: (Saros) They can be early indicators of environmental change.

    With support from the National Science Foundation, Lake Ecologist Jasmine Saros and her team from the University of Maine are gathering diatoms from the lake waters of southwestern Greenland.

  • Helicopter hovering over a rocky, snow covered landscape. Caption: Traveling by helicopter, plane, and snowmobile,

    Geologist John Goodge looks for clues about Antarctica's past in the two percent of the continent that is not covered in ice. The University of Minnesota, Duluth professor studies rocks that help provide evidence about how this desolate continent has formed and changed over time. In late 2010 and early 2011, he spent several weeks in the field with other scientists, visiting a dozen sites in Antarctica, along 1200 miles of mountains. They collected 2500 pounds of rocks, which are now being analyzed back in the states.

  • Group of seals on a beach, one looking up. Caption: Females actually return year after year

    Researchers from NOAA's National Marine Mammal Lab track the migrating fur seals to understand where they feed in winter months and what marine resources they depend on for survival. It's early November and the team affixes a satellite transmitter to an adult female. They won't see her back on the Pribilof Islands until next July, and they hope the tag will stay on throughout winter and spring. Back at their offices in Seattle, the researchers begin tracking tagged animals via satellites.
