The Grand Canyons of La Jolla are no longer just an under-the-sea treasure. Dive into the beauty our shores have to offer from dry land at the @WalterMunk_ Map, or even drier land from your computer. waltermunkway.com
In this photo from 1963, taken by Ansel Adams, Walter Munk inspects a tide capsule built by colleague Frank Snodgrass. The capsule was dropped to the seafloor to measure deep-sea tides before such measurements became feasible by satellite. @WalterMunk_ – at San Diego, CA

The chambered nautilus has been around longer than TREES, but this species is on the brink of extinction because of the shell trade. Speak up to tell U.S. Congress to support the Endangered Species Act and #StopExtinction in U.S. waters: bit.ly/36jmuUj

As we find solutions to the climate crisis, wetlands across the U.S. will be a vital part of the solution. We need to ensure that these ecosystems are restored, maintained and protected for years to come. 🌾

Calling all oceanographers - anyone seen or know of a ‘benthic vortex’ (it’s what I’m calling it for now)? I’ve never seen something like this before. This is at ~915m beneath sea surface. What are your thoughts please? Would love to know!
