A recent study lead by former DEEPS Postdoc Eva Golos found small amounts of partially melted rock at the lower boundary of the lithosphere in the Southwestern United States. “Understanding these processes will help scientists figure out where geologic hazards are high, and where to focus on hazard mitigation,” Golos told The Brown Daily Herald.

In a recent Nature publication, DEEPS alum Lorenzo A. Davidson '24, undergraduate Constance M. Erdozain, Professor Emanuele Di Lorenzo and team explore key factors impacting the migration of juvenile North Pacific albacore tuna. Using electronic tagging data and an individual-based model (IBM), the researchers demonstrate that mixed layer depth has a pivotal role in influencing albacore migration timing and depth preferences. "These findings highlight the relevance of subsurface ocean conditions to the movement of highly migratory species and demonstrate the utility of IBMs in the study of complex migratory behaviors."

Dr. Rocío Paola Caballero-Gill, a 2015 PhD graduate, was recently presented with the 2025 Randolph W. “Bill” and Cecile T. Bromery Award. She is a pioneering advocate for the Latinx community, disabled scientists, and all minoritized groups in STEM. Her work has made innovative and impactful contributions both to paleoclimate research and to the creation of community-engaged initiatives that broaden participation in the geosciences.
