The migration of mature female tiger sharks during late summer and fall to the main Hawaiian Islands, presumably to give birth, could provide insight into attacks in that area, according to a University of Florida scientist. In a new seven-year study, researchers from the Florida Museum of Na
They also investigated environmental circumstances, resource availability, first-hand

It’s an unusual collaboration. Botanists and archaeologists don’t often work together, unless they’re studying the way people have used plants through time. But a new four-year grant from the National Science Foundation is shaking things up. It provides more than $1 million to study how Mediterranea
With that information in hand, the next phase of the project will incorporate computer

Freshwater fishes in Florida are getting a close-up 60 years in the making. Florida Museum of Natural History ichthyologists have written a new book, “Fishes in the Fresh Waters of Florida,” to describe the freshwater and saltwater species found in Florida’s lakes, rivers and streams. The

The results of a yearlong science program show that one of the best ways to instill a lasting interest in science among children is to engage them alongside their family members. This finding runs counter to the current framework, in which children attend science-related summer camps and after-schoo

More than a thousand years ago, people from across the Southeast regularly traveled to a small island on Florida’s Gulf Coast to bond over oysters, likely as a means of coping with climate change and social upheaval. Archaeologists’ analysis of present-day Roberts Island, about 50 miles north of
Researchers hand-excavated, screened and analyzed animal remains from Crystal River

Encased in hard rock, the bones of many fossilized mammals are only partially visible for scientists to study. A poor attempt to take apart the rock and view the complete fossil may damage the bone, but micro-CT scanning technology has safeguarded the fate of these specimens, many of which are tens
Holding a tiny Notharctus skull in his hand, Bloch explained the scanner can digitally

So February was crazy. Even by our usual standards of busy-ness, everything was just a little bit more hectic in February. There was a lot of background busyness in the form of job seminars. Most weeks, sometimes twice a week, the whole museum schlepped over to Powell Hall (the public face of the
Sgambati from Seahorse Key and Lisa Lundgren from the UF Education school were also on hand

One of the hardest parts of working from home these days is being separated from hands-on projects in the lab and collections. Museum people want to have their stuff nearby. As the manager of the Ceramic Tech Lab, I normally have many different projects going on: identifying and sorting pottery fro
Using the flat side of the paddle with my hand inside, I whacked it evenly around

It was a chilly February day. A handful of Florida teachers gathered on the edge of a dirt pit in rural Levy County. Wind whipped across the open landscape, toying with scarves and making the little flags scattered around the pit dance on their long stems. Florida’s weak winter sunlight was sharp in
These hand-chosen teachers were here to dig for fossils as part of a professional

Happy Earth Day, Friends! We could not think of a more perfect day to share a summary of the 2025 season at the Randell Research Center (RRC) and to reconnect as a group through a revival of the Friends of the Randell Research Center Newsletter! Around the world, Earth Day unites billions of people
It has also been wonderful to meet so many of you and see first-hand your dedication
