SeaSecrets 2021 Lecture 2: CIMAS. Announcement of the lecture

University of Miami NOAA Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies

Since its founding in 1977, the Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS), based at the University of Miami Rosenstiel School, has brought together research and educational resources to increase scientific understanding of Earth's oceans and atmosphere within the context of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA's) mission. CIMAS promotes the involvement of Rosenstiel School students and postdoctoral scientists in NOAA-funded research, a mutually beneficial relationship that creates opportunities for students and provides NOAA with a source of qualified potential workforce members. 
 
Situated in close proximity to NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory, National Hurricane Center, and South Eastern Fisheries Science Center, CIMAS provides mission-critical support to programs such as NOAA's Hurricane Hunters, the Argo ocean monitoring program, cutting-edge aquaculture research, and marine mammal conservation. Four CIMAS scientists and researchers will provide a sampling of some of these exciting ongoing research and development projects.
