Dr. Monty Graham and his PhD student Kelly Robinson were thrilled to learn this past October that a proposal by Dr. Graham and colleagues to create a global synthesis of reports of jellyfish abundance was funded by the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS). The two-year synthesis project will consist of a series of five workshops held at the NCEAS Santa Barbara, CA campus and at a forum in Spain. Some of the most prominent scientists in the fields of jellyfish ecology and marine biogeochemical cycling, with representatives from every continent except Antarctica (though some of them have been there too) will attend these workshops.
