Understanding Climate Change's Effects on Marine Life
UC San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography has been awarded a substantial grant of $10 million from the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation. This funding will aid in establishing a new research center focused primarily on the neurobiology of marine organisms in the face of climate change.
Key Objectives of the Research Center
- To investigate the neurological responses of marine life to changing environmental conditions.
- To develop strategies for mitigating the adverse effects of climate change on ocean ecosystems.
- To collaborate with global researchers to enhance scientific understanding of climate impacts.
This center represents a significant step forward in addressing the challenges posed by climate change on marine biodiversity.
