Oceans link to climate change

 

Brett Jameson, University of Victoria PhD student. Photo: UVic Photo Services

December 23, 2020 - Jody Paterson

Deep in the ocean off Vancouver Island’s west coast, a gas associated with climate warming is making its way to the surface. Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a product of plankton decomposition, pulled to the surface in areas where deep-sea waters migrate upwards in what’s known as coastal upwelling.

Where is it coming from? That’s a question that University of Victoria PhD student Brett Jameson is exploring, in collaboration with Ocean Networks Canada (ONC), a UVic initiative, and the Canadian...

Spring bloom arrives early this year

May 11, 2015

Every spring, plankton in many coastal temperate marine systems such as the Strait of Georgia will grow in number so rapidly and to such an extent that the water colour will become visibly green. This year, the spring phytoplankton bloom was the earliest we’ve had since 2005.

January quakes cause jitters in British Columbia

Jan 28, 2015

On 7 January 2015, a magnitude 4.8 earthquake rattled houses in Tofino on Vancouver Island’s west coast shortly after dark. It was one of over 170 quakes to strike the BC coast during the first three weeks of the year. And while this crustal quake caused minimal damage, it gave residents in BC coastal communities good cause to consider their earthquake and tsunami response plans. There is a 1 in 10 chance that the west coast of Canada will experience a megathrust quake—over magnitude 8.4—within 50 years.

Understanding the Oceans

Sep 21, 2014

Understanding how the oceans work is hard, because we almost always don't have enough measurements to even know what the ocean is doing, never mind why. One of the exciting things in the VENUS Observatory expansion plan was the installation of a radar system that was specially designed to provide estimates of surface currents over a large region covering the Fraser plume. What's the Fraser plume?

3D Cameras in the Ocean

Sep 20, 2014

The underwater 3D reconstruction has been a popular topic in computer vision research community for the last decade and it still remains a challenging problem.

What's the Deal with Flatfish?

Sep 19, 2014

An important part of climate change research is measuring and predicting the magnitude of ecosystem response. The northeast Pacific is a global hotspot for future oxygen loss driven by climate change. Overall oxygen content in the oceans will drop if sea surface temperatures continue to rise because warmer sea water holds less oxygen. If oxygen levels drop too low (hypoxia), animals will have to migrate, adapt or die – but how do you measure these thresholds for animal life?

CSI Salish Sea Completes with 10th Deployment

Sep 18, 2014

Friday Sept 19th, 2014 marks a milestone as it will be the 10th in a series of carcass deployments in the Salish Sea. Almost a decade ago, Dr. Verena Tunnicliffe saw me give a talk at the University of Victoria on forensic entomology and she invited me ‘on board’ VENUS to deploy a pig carcass as a human proxy under a camera at the bottom of the Saanich Inlet. I was the first external researcher in VENUS.
