The Center for Aquatic Chemistry and Environment is a National Science Foundation Center of Research Excellence in Science and Technology that tackles one of the most complex challenges: environmental contamination.
Research Focus Areas
Ongoing Monitoring
We deploy our research buoys around South Florida to detect or investigate hazards such as red tide or the recent fish kills in Biscayne Bay. Data are available for viewing online.
