Historically, research has been dominated by projects in the fields of biology and geology. Major projects have dealt with recruitment processes, fisheries ecology, life histories, fisheries oceanography, physical oceanographic processes on larval transport and recruitment, coral reef ecology, predator-prey dynamics, marine carbonate geology and related microbiological processes, paleo-oceanography, the impact of subsurface ultraviolet light in marine environments, marine aquaculture and long-term monitoring of oceanographic and meteorological conditions.
