The Scripps Oceanographic Collections are world-renowned repositories supporting scientific research and education. They provide the basis for understanding the ocean's biodiversity, the evolutionary history of life on Earth, and the rates and characteristics of climate change. Get an insider’s view into fascinating creatures in these irreplaceable scientific collections. Series: "Jeffrey B. Graham Perspectives on Ocean Science Lecture Series" [Science] [Show ID: 33732]

An overview the collaborative work of a coral reef ecologist and a cell biologist in their quest to understand the effects of global climate change on coral biology. By combining biomedical laboratory techniques and fieldwork, they are attempting to understand the cellular mechanisms that are disrupted during bleaching, eutrophication, and ocean acidification, and the implications for coral reef ecosystems.

Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble chronicles a 30 year quest to reveal the role ocean bubbles play in weather, climate and planetary science. Formed by breaking ocean waves and trapped within ancient glacier ice, marine bubbles range from the poles to the tropics and their effects are global in scale. Bubbles bridge air and sea, driving the exchange of gas, chemicals and microbes across wind-driven oceans. Series: "Jeffrey B.

Join Scripps Oceanography Green Scholar John Delaney for a deep dive into the profound connections between oceans, human history, and the future of exploration, on earth and other planets. Series: "Jeffrey B. Graham Perspectives on Ocean Science Lecture Series" [Science] [Show ID: 32881]

Join Scripps marine biologist Maya deVries as she describes the mantis shrimp's "punch." With speeds of up to 50 miles per hour and accelerations that are comparable to a .22 caliber bullet, the mantis shrimp strike is considered to be one of the fastest movements ever recorded in the animal kingdom.

Nationally prominent chefs, fishermen, academics, and activists call on consumers to choose local species of fish when possible to protect the longterm vitality of harvested seafood and the wellbeing of the oceans. Tommy Gomes, fishmonger, speaks on the marketing and perceptions of seafood. Series: "UCTV Prime" [Show ID: 33150]

Seven and a half billion humans are changing the way we relate to the oceans. In this fast-changing world, marine animals and plants must adapt fast to a warmer and corrosive environment as ocean acidification, pollution and deoxygenation continue. This global crisis is causing humans to be anxious about the safety of our oceans for recreation and as a source of food. Debora Iglesias-Rodriguez discusses how humans can contribute to ameliorate current ocean problems and eventually return the oceans to a more sustainable state.
