Researcher joins rising temperature research team
Lauren Nadler, an assistant professor at the Halmos College of Arts and Sciences, has joined a research team studying the impact of rising sea temperatures on marine life. Nadler and the rest of the research team have been studying how five-lined cardinalfish and redbelly yellowtail fusiliers from the Great Barrier Reef react to gradually increasing temperatures. According to Nadler, “More immediately pressing than future climate change is the increasing frequency and severity of extreme ‘underwater heat waves’ that we are already seeing around the world today,” with such heat waves causing temperature increases to at most 5 degrees Celsius above the average temperature for the region. Their research found that the rise in temperature could lead to rapid physiological changes and adaptations in the two species.
Hanbury accepts wager from Kansas City University
Kansas City University President Marc Hahn has bet George Hanbury that, if the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the Kansas City Chiefs, Hahn and KCU will give Hanbury $100 worth of barbecue from Jack Stack Barbecue in Kansas City. Hanbury accepted the bet wagering the same value in Joe’s Stone Crab claws. Hanbury accepted the bet saying, “It’s all in good fun, but there’s always an element of pride when you make a wager. It should be a great game, pitting who many call the G.O.A.T – quarterback Tom Brady – against the league’s heir-apparent Patrick Mahomes.”
