Hector M. Guzman
My lab currently focuses much attention on marine highly migratory species including whales, manatees, sharks, sea birds, billfishes and turtles to better understanding their basic movement ecology and to encourage scientifically supported conservation policies. In the Pacific Ocean from Chile to...

Harilaos Lessios
I am interested in the evolution and the ecology of marine organisms, particularly sea urchins, but also fishes, crustaceans, and corals. I focus on the processes that give rise to new species, and I use molecular tools to reconstruct the history of populations and of genes. Typically, this...
Scientist
Robert Stallard
My research focuses on how land-cover and climate change affect water movement through soils, weathering, and erosion, and how these, in turn, affect the composition and dispersal of dissolved and solid phases in rivers and trace gases in the atmosphere. Some of my areas of expertise include...

Scientists question hydrological model for Panama Canal Watershed
Enero 17, 2014
A new model suggests reforestation could be detrimental to water resources in the Panama Canal. Smithsonian scientists warn of flawed methodology and emphasize case for long-term monitoring.

Reefs’ Little Helpers
Are tiny grazers thenew hope forCaribbean reefs?
Enero 05, 2017
Large numbers of small algae-grazing sea urchins and fish may take the place of larger grazers to prevent algae from overgrowing reefs, a new study shows.
