We are a coastal research lab led by Dr. Thomas DeCarlo. Our projects focus coral reefs and restored oyster reefs. For more information, visit https://www.reeflab.science
A big welcome to the three new PhD students in the Reef Lab!
Angela Larson (B.S from UCSB), Avi Strange (B.S. from CofC) and Brooke Rodriguez (B.S. from ND). For more information on their projects, visit www.reeflab.science/people.html

This week, the Sclero Lab had its 1,000th core upload on the CoralCT application! The CoralCT app can be used to archive digital scans of coral cores and analyze their annual density growth bands. For more information, visit www.sclerochronologylab.com/coralct.html

We had a blast this past month hosting GIST (Girls in STEM at Tulane) workshops at the Sclero Lab! Middle school girls and their teachers stopped by to learn and explore the world of coral with us! 🪸😄

Our post-bac researchers Avi and Oliwia visited a 4th-grade class in New Orleans to teach them about coral! We work with Tulane's K-12 Center for STEM Education to visit classes all around the city.

Lab Update 🪸:
The Sclero Lab has new sets of density standards for coral cores that you can use for CT scanning! Email us at [email protected] to request them to be sent to you.

We've just uploaded the first version of the CRISP (Coral Reef In Situ Product) website! CRISP is an open-access data repository designed to centralize global in situ coral reef temperature data from and for the research community.

We recently had a very fun workshop for BATS (Boys at Tulane in STEM)! They learned about coral and how we can study their growth with core analysis. We played a fun trivia game and used VR (virtual reality) headsets to look at coral cores in 3D! Next up is GIST (Girls in STEM at Tulane) in March!
