ICYMI: TAMU Oceanography professors are leading a GEOTRACES GP17-OCE team on a 55-day research cruise to the southwestern Pacific Ocean to study how trace metals and nutrient levels affect life in the region as part of the global #NSFfunded GEOTRACES program.



The trace metal team on GEOTRACES GP17-OCE is working hard even in the snow! Big smiles come snow or shine! TAMU Oceanography GEOTRACES

Second to last trace metal CTD cast of GEOTRACES GP17-OCE! I’m so lucky to have had this amazing group of students and postdocs working with me on trace metal ops. I couldn’t have asked for a better team! #FitzLab TAMU Oceanography @marmite_usf Bigelow Laboratory Old Dominion University


The #FitzLab is finally together (minus two beloved undergrads) for the first time since September 2022, and so we celebrated with lunch and this picture! I’m so excited for the amazing oceanography that this lab family is producing! TAMU Oceanography Texas A&M Arts & Sciences



We got our very own trace metal rosette today! Science dreams come true! We can’t wait to head out to collect trace metal clean seawater in the Gulf of Mexico and Juan de Fuca Ridge over the next three months! #FitzLab TAMU Oceanography Texas A&M Arts & Sciences


Congrats to recently minted #FitzLab student Dr. Nate Lanning on his exciting publication in PNAS on how anthropogenic lead penetrates the oldest waters in the global ocean in the abyssal North Pacific. TAMU Oceanography Texas A&M Arts & Sciences #NSFfunded

🧵Since it is becoming hard to track, here is a thread of the simply astounding weather records planet Earth has started shattering in recent weeks: 1. Dramatic flood events have begun striking various countries around the world simultaneously this week. x.com/Rishusharma26/…

And the #FitzLab is off to Main Endeavor Field on the Juan de Fuca Ridge aboard Research Vessel Atlantis. This group has already done so much in two short days… I’m so proud!! Excited for some amazing hydrothermal oceanography! TAMU Oceanography Texas A&M Arts & Sciences #NSFfunded
