At the end of this fall semester of 2008 four graduate students from the Marine Science Department successfully defended their thesis. Marcos Rosado-Torres (worked in Mayaguez Bay), Deborah Cedeño-Maldonado (worked in La Pargera Bioluminescence Bay), and María Vega-Rodriguez (worked in La Parguera Keys) were supervised by Dr. Roy Armstrong and conducted projects related with ocean optics and remote sensing of coastal waters. Ramón López worked with the bio-optical dynamics of eddies in the Eastern Caribbean Sea and his advisor was Dr. José M. López. All these projects were linked with current research in the GERS Lab and Dr. Fernando Gilbes was part of their thesis committees. Specific details of each project can be found in the table below.
