Diver-Operated Microscope Brings Hidden Coral Biology into Focus
The intricate, hidden processes that sustain coral life are being revealed through a new microscope developed by UC San Diego scientists. In a new study, they describe how this diver-operated microscope makes it possible to study the health and physiology of coral reefs in their natural habitat.
Diver-Operated Microscope Illuminates Hidden Coral Biology
A groundbreaking advancement in marine biology and underwater imaging has emerged from researchers at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography: a revolutionary underwater microscope called the Benthic Underwater Microscope Imaging PAM, or BUMP. This innovative technology transcends previous limitations by allowing scientists to peer directly into the microcosm of coral reefs and observe critical photosynthetic processes in situ, withou…
