C-MORE Researchers in Hawaii Probe Marine Microbes, Train a New Cadre of Scientists

Image of a Hawaiian Sunset on the ocean.Researchers at the Center for Microbial Oceanography: Research and Education (C-MORE) are exploring how microbes influence the structure and function of the global ocean. C-MORE was established in 2006 as a National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center. Based at the University of Hawaii at Manoa (UH Manoa), C-MORE also includes five other institutions on the U.S. mainland that are leaders in the field of microbial oceanography.

Panorama of the East Coast

Panorama of the East Coast

This Jan. 29 panorama of much of the East Coast, photographed by one of the Expedition 30 crew members aboard the International Space Station, provides a look generally northeastward: Philadelphia-New York City-Boston corridor (bottom-center); western Lake Ontario shoreline with Toronto (left edge); Montreal (near center). An optical illusion in the photo makes the atmospheric limb and light activity from Aurora Borealis appear "intertwined." Image Credit: NASA
