Since 2016, researchers from the Charney School, led by Dr. Aviad Scheinin (Apax Marine Predator Lab at the Morris Kahn Marine Research Station) have caught, sampled, and successfully released over 80 sharks (the dusky and sandbar species), around Hadera's electric power plant.
as part of the "Dead Sea analog to Deep Sea" field trip course leaded by Prof. Nicolas Waldmann from the Department of Marine Geosciences. Exceptional lacustrine outcrops surround the current receding levels of the Dead Sea and allows to identify at extreme high-resolution, different processes, sediment architecture and facies, which can be used as analog to similar settings in the deep sea environment. In other words: diving into the deep sea, without getting wet!
As part of the "Tethys Sea to the Mediterranean" fieldtrip of the Dr. Moses Strauss Department of Marine Geosciences in northern Israel, we climbed to the footsteps of the highest mountain in Israel (Mt Hermon) and went down to the Mediterranean Sea, in a journey through time. We learned the geology of the region and tried to understand why Israel is "the gift of the sea" and how the regional landscape was formed
The sharks have returned — to the warm waters off Hadera power station 28.11.19Scientists begin tagging specimens for research, warn public to stay away, though intrepid divers are expected to…
A new study conducted by Prof. Tali Mass of the Department of Marine Biology, in collaboration with the University of Technology Sydney, Australia, has found that preserving the genetic diversity of a large number of corals growing in various living conditions increases the chances of their survival under various extreme conditions. The findings of the study were published in both the Jerusalem Post and Forbes newspapers
We recently celebrated the inaugural launch of the "Eastern Mediterranean Sea Centre – An Early-Warning Model-System for our Future Ocean" project, a collaborative effort with the Germany-based GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel.
