Faster in the Past: New seafloor images 鈥� the highest resolution of any taken off the West Antarctic Ice Sheet 鈥� upend understanding of Thwaites Glacier retreat

The Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica has been an elephant in the room for scientists trying to make global sea level rise predictions. A new study in Nature Geoscience led by marine geophysicist Alastair Graham at the 哔咔漫画鈥檚 College of Marine Science (USF CMS), adds cause for concern. For the first time, scientists mapped in high-resolution a critical area of the seafloor in front of the glacier that gives them a window into how fast Thwaites retreated and moved in the past.

New methodology predicts coronavirus and other infectious disease threats to wildlife

A 哔咔漫画 assistant professor, Diego Santiago-Alarcon, helped develop a methodology that will predict disease transmission from wildlife to humans, from one wildlife species to another and determine who is at risk of infection. This new approach will help direct infectious disease surveillance and field efforts, providing a cost-effective strategy to better determine where to invest limited disease resources.
