Event Description
The 2010 Gulf oil spill has called attention to the ecological challenges facing the northern Gulf of Mexico. Dr. James Ammerman, New York Sea Grant Director, shares some of his past experience as a microbial ecologist interested in nutrient cycling and its contribution to the Gulf's "Dead Zone." From his faculty posts at Texas A&M and then at Rutgers, Jim led numerous cruises into the Northern Gulf from 2000 to 2004. At Rutgers, he also created and taught courses on the challenges of the Gulf post-Katrina. |
