Hello! I'm Takuya, and I'm studying hurricane boundary layer and intensification. I am also a staff of Japan Meteorological Agency. There I was in charge of typhoon tracking and analysis.
I studied astronomy/solar physics in a graduate school in Kyoto, Japan, but change my major! I like cooking and gourmet so much, so if you like those, let's talk about local tasty food here in Miami.

Hi everyone! I'm Karen (she/her) and I'm working on using game-style VR experiences to open up access to marine resources -- specifically shipwrecks! (Here's me being really happy about diving in warm water - hello, Florida!)

Hi! I'm Liz (she/her) and I'm studying volcanic seismology. I did my bachelor's in musical theatre, so when I'm not at RSMAS I enjoy making music, doing anything involving boats, and hiking. I don't have any research photos, so here is a picture from a trip I took to Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh!

Hello everyone! I'm Alexis, and I'm studying tropical cyclogenesis. I'm currently in St. Croix for the CPEX-AW field campaign, so I happen to have a picture of me launching a weather balloon my first day here. I'm also forecasting but that's not as photogenic!

Hi, I'm Eric (he/him), a first year studying atmospheric rivers. I don't have any research pictures, so here's a photo of me in Rhode Island in fall.

Hi y'all, I'm Will (he/him/his)! My research will be focused on the formation and early organization of tropical cyclones. My research will be (and always has been) entirely computer-based, but luckily I've got this fun staged photo from undergrad of me doing some big-time thinking while holding a chunk of Arctic sea ice.

Hi! I'm Liz, I started at RSMAS two years ago in the MS program but decided to transfer into the PhD program this past summer. My research is on Damselfish Neurofibromatosis in bi-color damselfish. I am not great at taking photos of myself but have loads of pictures of my dog and places I have travelled to. One of my favorite places was Bonaire, which is where I am diving in my photo.

Hello! I'm Liz (she/her/hers), researching what organic matter looks like in marine water column environments through compound-specific isotope analyses. I spend the majority of my time in lab preparing and analyzing samples. When not in lab I enjoy swimming, diving, and taking my dog on new adventures.

Hi everyone! I'm Tyler (he/him/his) and I'm a first year student studying cloud-aerosol interactions in the southeast Atlantic. I have no research photos, so I included a picture from this past summer of me in Iceland!

Hello! I'm Victoria and my research focuses on sea level rise and coastal flooding on the East Coast of the United States. My research is done using python sitting at my computer but this past spring I got to go on a research cruise in the Atlantic! So here is a picture of my throwing a drifter off of the boat. When I am not at RSMAS I enjoy yoga in the park or going on hiking trips.

Hi Everyone! I'm Alex (she/her/hers), a fisheries scientist focused on tropical tuna movement ecology in the Atlantic. My research is all modeled on a computer but I source information from thousands of tags. This picture was from a really great Mahi fishing trip, I love fishing when I can.

Hi Everyone! I'm Paul (he/him/his) and welcome to Miami (even if only virtually)! My research looks at how organic matter changes in the water column. Specifically, I look at how different individual chemicals and chemical compositions change as organic matter sinks. I spend most of my time in the lab here on campus and much of that is working with the instrument that I am staring at in the picture (Gas Chromatography-Combustion-Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer). When I'm not in the lab, my fiancé and I like to go explore Miami, particularly trying different restaurants, or we like to travel. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

Hey everyone, I'm Sam (she/her) and I can't wait to meet all of you. My research focuses on the rapid intensification of tropical cyclones. All of my research is done on a computer; analyzing data from current and past storms as well as running forecast models (eventually, haha). I love photography, so this is a photo of me playing around with some windows at RSMAS and using them as my mirror.

Hello there, and welcome to RSMAS! My research revolves around corals, their cells, and how they are able to fight off pathogens and recover from damage. While my photo is misleading and I don't get to scrub off algae on restoration tiles anymore, I do spend most of my time in the lab and occasionally on my computer. I look forward to meeting you all soon!

Hey yall! I am super excited to get to know everyone! My research, like others, involves me sitting on my laptop. My current research looks into the interaction between tropical cyclones and the ocean. Specifically, I look at what influences the amount of SST cooling under the cyclone. My "creative" photo is a picture I took while solo hiking around Yosemite a couple weeks ago!

Hi All! I'm excited to meet you all. Since my research is coding based and I'm mostly sitting around on my laptop - I had to get creative with this photo! My research focuses on looking into cold air outbreaks using aquaplanet simulations. If you don't have a photo relating to your research, I encourage you to get creative😊
