🌊 🏆 Congratulations to Clarissa Anderson, a Scripps biological oceanographer & SCCOOS director, for being nominated for the San Diego Magazine STEM - Pioneer Award! Vote for Clarissa, who works to predict ocean hazards and create a more informed public: https://bit.ly/40pTYxQ

📹🌊The Scripps Pier Underwater Camera is back online! The camera's return is made possible thanks to a generous gift from Santa Cruz Paleo, a new sponsor, and due to the hard work of Deep Sea Power and Light and Ocean Innovations. https://coollab.ucsd.edu/pierviz/

The team found that a network of in-ground sensors can provide a reliable warning of impending landslides with hours to days notice, which can be used by emergency response authorities to create an actionable warning system to protect the public from hazardous cliff failures.

⚠️Can coastal cliff collapses be predicted? A new 4-year study led by Scripps Oceanography scientists found that in-ground sensors detected movement hours to days before five cliff failures—an important step toward a future early warning system for California's coast.🧵⤵️
