Welcome to our Centennial Class of ’25

By Roni Avissar, Dean, Rosenstiel School It is my pleasure to welcome the incoming University of Miami Centennial Class of ’25 to our school. In spite of the disruption caused by COVID-19, undergraduate enrollment has increased 27 percent and graduate enrollment has gone up 63 percent as compared to Academic Year 2018-2019. This fall, we have nearly 1,000 students – the largest and most diverse class in our history.

Be assured that we are taking extensive health and safety precautions for our students, faculty and staff in accordance with UM COVID-19 vaccination requirements and guidelines from the CDC. As President Frenk says, “We all want to be on the other side of it. Until we are, we must put health—our own, that of our fellow ’Canes, and the wellbeing of our surrounding communities—first.”

In terms of our programs, we took a bold step forward to expand research and teaching opportunities with the creation of the Department of Environmental Science and Policy, which is based on the former Department of Marine Ecosystems and Society.

We are in the process of recruiting new faculty that will enhance and diversify this new department.

We recognize that recent earthquakes, forest fires, droughts, hurricanes, Saharan dust, and floods have made our mission more relevant than ever, while providing our students with unprecedented opportunities for studying how to support a sustainable future for our planet.

As you will see in this issue, our school has been quite successful

in obtaining major federal grants to conduct applied research to pressing problems facing society in the 21st century. But we continue to rely on philanthropic support for recruiting prominent faculty, student scholarships and research infrastructure. With your support, we will continue to grow our marine, atmospheric and Earth science programs, which are making important contributions to understanding our fragile planet.

PR OGRAM NEW S A Record Class for Marine Biology and Ecology Program Since its launch two years ago, the Rosenstiel School’s undergraduate program in Marine Biology and Ecology has seen a steady increase in admissions. This fall, we are excited to welcome our largest incoming class of nearly a hundred students. The program provides students with a foundation of knowledge in marine systems and their biota, with core courses in genetics, physiology, ecology, and evolution as well as upper level, research intensive courses. By combining classroom instruction with authentic field and laboratory experiences, students conduct novel research projects and learn by doing. Researchbased learning is used to enhance students’ understanding of how science is done, how natural

systems work, and how science can be applied to finding solutions to current challenges.

RESE ARCH Addressing Global Environmental Issues Since climate change, pollution, and sustainable resource use are among the most pressing global issues, the Rosenstiel School has reorganized the former Department of Marine Ecosystems and Society into the

Roni Avissar. “Understanding the implications of critical environmental issues requires an integrated study of the policy, economic, cultural, and equity impacts of potential solutions.“

Department of Environmental Science & Policy (EVR). “Scientific information alone cannot address these challenges,” said Dean

Led by Professor and Chair David Letson, EVR will focus on generating policy-relevant research in fields such as overfishing, habitat degradation, water mismanagement, pollution, natural hazards and climate change, while training the next generation of practitioners and decision-makers. The department will maintain its strong focus on the oceans, as well as the interactions between people and the environment on our coasts, across the land, and in the atmosphere.

Associated with this reorganization, EVR will administer the Ph.D. program in Environmental Science and Policy. EVR will continue to be a vibrant home for departmental and the Rosenstiel School undergraduate marine affairs program, MPS, and MS degree programs. “With a strategic vision that focuses on environmental science and policy, EVR will contribute to our school’s mission through high-impact research, teaching and service,” said Avissar. “We are excited about the vital role EVR will play in shaping a sustainable future for our planet.”

R E S EARCH: UNL O C K I NG OC E A N S E C R E T S Rosenstiel faculty lead United Nations decade research program A United Nations initiative codesigned by the University of Miami will contribute to fulfilling ten global ocean challenges by 2030. Rosenstiel School Professor Villy Kourafalou is a co-chair of Coast Predict -Observing and Predicting the Global Coastal Ocean, and Professor Claire Paris is a member of its international steering committee. As part of the endorsed UN Actions, CoastPredict suggestions and recommendations could help the scientific community design and implement a system made up of different observation and forecasting platforms, continuously and sustainably monitoring rivers, estuaries, coastal

cities and the coastal ocean, offering open and free access to coastal information.

CoastPredict was selected for its focus on solutions and ability to accelerate the generation and uptake of ocean knowledge and users of ocean knowledge, and for their respect of inclusivity, empowering women, Early Career Ocean Professionals (ECOPs) and indigenous knowledge holders.

Study finds humans are directly influencing North Atlantic wind and weather A new study led by Rosenstiel School atmospheric scientists Jeremy Klavans, Amy Clement and Lisa Murphy provides evidence that humans are influencing wind and weather patterns across the eastern United States and western Europe by releasing CO2 and other pollutants into Earth’s atmosphere. The research team found that changes in the last 50 years to an important weather phenomenon in the North Atlantic—known as the North Atlantic Oscillation—can be traced back to human activities that impact the climate system. This oscillation has a strong effect on winter weather in Europe, Greenland, the northeastern U.S. and North Africa and the quality of crop yields and productivity of fisheries in the North Atlantic. Lead author Jeremy Klavans, a UM Rosenstiel School alumnus, said, “In this study, we show that humans are influencing patterns of weather and climate over the Atlantic and that we may be able to use this information to predict changes in weather and climate up to a decade in advance.”

A history of African dust A research team, led by Rosenstiel Professor Emeritus Joseph M. Prospero, chronicles the history of African dust transport, including three independent “first” discoveries of African dust in the Caribbean Basin in the 1950s and 1960s. Every year, mineral-rich dust from North Africa’s Sahara Desert is lifted into the atmosphere by winds and carried on a 5,000-mile journey across the North Atlantic to the Americas.

African dust contains iron, phosphorus and other important nutrients that are essential for life in marine and terrestrial ecosystems, including the Amazon Basin. Wind-borne mineral dust also plays an important role in climate by modulating solar radiation and cloud properties. Today, Prospero, nicknamed the “father of dust,” is using a system of ground stations and satellites to study the effect that the global transport from the Sahara has on the atmospheric composition above the Caribbean.

R E S EARCH: S AV I NG L I V E S Managed retreat recommended as climate change option Rosenstiel researcher Katharine Mach says managed retreat – moving people and property out of harm’s way – can support communities and livelihoods in the face of climate change. In a new analysis, Mach argued that managed retreat should be viewed as a proactive option in a paper, “Reframing strategic, managed retreat for

transformative climate adaptation,” published in the journal Science. “Managed retreat can be more effective in reducing risk – in ways that are socially equitable and economically efficient – if it is a proactive component of climate-driven transformations,” said Mach, an associate professor in the Department of Environmental Science and Policy. “It can be used to address climate risks, along with other types of responses like building seawalls or limiting new development in hazard-prone regions.”

SubX initiative increases weather forecast accuracy Since its rollout four years ago, the Subseasonal Experiment, or SubX initiative, has accurately predicted a variety of harsh weather events.

What makes those forecasts so exceptional is that SubX generated those weather outlooks weeks in advance, drawing on the power of Triton, the supercomputer of the University of Miami Institute for Data Science and Computing (IDSC), to build its forecast, according to Ben Kirtman, Rosenstiel

professor and director of the Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies, as well as deputy director of IDSC. SubX draws upon six different forecast models to come up with the best solution, said Kirtman.

“The best way to explore a realistic assessment of the range of possible outcomes is to use a multi-model approach,” Kirtman said.

New study shines light on hazards of Earth’s largest volcano Rosenstiel researchers have found that a large earthquake could set off eruption of Hawaii’s Mauna Loa volcano, the largest on Earth.

They analyzed ground movements

and magma flows, as well as faults in the region. “An earthquake of magnitude-6 or greater would relieve the stress imparted by the influx of magma along a sub-horizontal fault under the western flank of the volcano,” said Bhuvan Varugu, a Ph.D. candidate and lead author of the study supervised by Falk Amelung, professor in the

Department of Marine Geosciences.

“This earthquake could trigger an eruption.” The researchers also found that there was movement not associated with an earthquake along a near horizontal fault under the eastern flank. This led the researchers to conclude that an earthquake under the western flank is due. Motions along nearhorizontal faults under the flanks are essential features of long-term volcano growth.

Face masks protect against aerosolized toxins from algal blooms Rosenstiel researchers have found that low-cost face masks and AC filters are effective against aerosolized toxins from harmful algal blooms. “We found that face

masks and air conditioner filters can reduce the risk of exposure by filtering out small, toxin-containing particles,” said Cassandra Gaston, an assistant professor of atmospheric sciences and lead author of a recent study. They can also be effective at filtering out other kinds of small particles as well, added Haley Royer, co-first

author and Ph.D. student. Harmful algal blooms, often referred to as red tides and blue-green algae, are exacerbated by nutrient-rich runoff from agriculture and industrial waste that end up in waterways.

Noxious particles enter the air mostly from the breaking of waves, resulting in airborne toxins that cause serious health problems to humans and marine life.

R E S E ARCH: PR O TEC TI N G OU R R E S OU R C E S Scientists identify live immune cells in coral and sea anemone A new collaborative study has identified specialized immune cells in the cauliflower coral and starlet sea anemone that can help fight infection.

“These findings are important because they show that corals have the cellular capabilities to fight infection and that they have unique cell types that were previously not known,” said Nikki TraylorKnowles, assistant professor of marine biology and ecology and co-senior author of the study. They found that specialized phagocytic cells engulfed the foreign particles, while small, fluid-filled structures inside the cells, called phagosomes, worked to destroy the invaders as well as their own damaged cells. “Our findings can help in the development of diagnostic tools for assessing coral health,” said Traylor-Knowles.

New study tracked large sharks during hurricanes A study led by Rosenstiel scientists tracked large sharks in Miami and The Bahamas to understand how these migratory animals respond to hurricanes. The researchers analyzed acoustic tag data from tiger sharks (Galeocerdo cuvier), bull sharks (Carcharhinus leucas), nurse sharks (Ginglymostoma cirratum), and great hammerheads (Sphyrna mokarran) before, during, and after Hurricane Matthew in 2016 and Hurricane Irma in 2017. They found that the sharks behaved differently by species and location. For example, bull sharks, great hammerhead, and most nurse sharks appeared to mostly evacuate the shallow waters of Biscayne Bay in response to Irma, but large tiger sharks in the Bahamas remained in shallow inshore waters during Matthew. “I was amazed -6-

to see that big tiger sharks didn’t evacuate even as the eye of the hurricane was bearing down on them,” said Neil Hammerschlag, research associate professor. “Their numbers even increased after the storm passed, probably taking

advantage of the new scavenging opportunities.”

Scientists successfully breed corals for disease resistance For the first time, grooved brain corals rescued from a disease outbreak and maintained in human care have been bred with wild corals that survived the disease, in a collaborative restoration initiative between Rosenstiel scientists and the Florida Aquarium Center for Conservation.

This breakthrough research effort represents the firsttime cryogenically preserved sperm has been successfully used to crossbreed brain coral parents from different locations, with the goal of enhancing genetic diversity and disease resistance to help protect and

restore Florida’s depleted coral reefs. Earlier this year, Rosenstiel scientists fertilized eggs from wild Miami colonies of the grooved brain coral using frozen sperm collected from rescued corals, which the Florida Aquarium has maintained since 2018. At the same time, Florida Aquarium scientists fertilized eggs from rescued corals using frozen sperm from wild corals that spawned in Key Largo collected

by UM scientists and the Coral Restoration Foundation.

R E S EARCH: F EEDI NG TH E W OR L D Researcher advances international strategy to manage fisheries Implementing a so-called transboundary marine protected area (TMPA) can be a plausible alternative to conventional agreements to manage certain fish species, according to Renato Molina, assistant professor of environmental science and policy. “It’s based on eliminating the factors that lead to noncooperation in the first place,” he said. “Whenever there are species distributed across multiple jurisdictions, countries, states, and communities tend to exploit them harder than they otherwise would, and this is especially true with fish.

When fisheries are spread across territories, the odds that they’ll be overexploited are higher. And, consequently, they’ll end up being in worse shape sustainability-wise than those contained in a single

jurisdiction.” Molina added that a well-designed conservation agreement in the form of a TMPA would allow two resource owners, rather than a third party, to jointly decide just how much of their own jurisdiction to protect from

overfishing, with stiff economic penalties imposed should those limits be exceeded.

I N ME MOR I AM Chris Harrison, Ph.D. 1936-2021 We are saddened by the passing of Professor Emeritus Chris Harrison, a member of the faculty of the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science.

He passed away on September 7, 2021 surrounded by family and loved ones.

Chris received his BA, MS, and PhD in Geophysics (1966) at Cambridge University, followed by a Sc.D. from Cambridge in 1989. He was a postdoctoral fellow at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and joined the faculty at the Rosenstiel School in 1967.

Prior to his schooling, he did military service in the British Army Corps of Royal Engineers (1955-1957) as a second lieutenant. He served as chair of the Division of Marine Geology & Geophysics from 19761983 and interim dean of the school from 1986-1989.

Chris was a paleomagnetist by training and made contributions to our understanding of secular variations in the Earth’s magnetic field and the origin of magnetic anomalies. He published papers on a wide variety of geophysical topics related to plate tectonics, sea level change, and rates of continental weathering and mountain building. Perhaps his most important contribution was the discovery that sediments could record the magnetic field of the Earth, a discovery which was seized on by others and was one of the important proofs of the theory of plate tectonics.

He was very active in the early days of the Deep Sea Drilling Project and represented the Rosenstiel School on many of the advisory panels for that program and the successor Ocean Drilling Program. In a short paper published in Nature in 1964 (Harrison and Funnell,

- 14 -

1964), Chris reported the first magnetic reversal ever identified in a deep sea sediment sequence.

Paleomagnetic stratigraphy is now a cornerstone of marine stratigraphy and a key to constructing chronologies for deep sea sediment records. According to his entry in ResearchGate, Chris was the author of more than 170 papers, book chapters and technical reports. He was a fellow of the AGU. Chris leaves behind his wife Martha, two children Arial and Euan, and four grandchildren. They and the school will miss him greatly.
