The Scripps Pier Live Cam managed by Scripps' Coastal Ocean Observing Lab provides high-definition live streaming video from a piling of Scripps Pier at about ~4 meters (13 feet) depth.. Watch closely to see the difference between floating organic bits and mysid shrimp zooming by. Get lucky and see a school of top smelt, a curious lobster, or even a leopard shark or bat ray!

The Department of Scripps Institution of Oceanography offers instruction leading to Master of Science (M.S.) degrees in oceanography, marine biology, and earth sciences. The M.S. degree is for those who have an interest in studying a specific area of …

The primary area of research is air-sea interaction, including the topics of surface wave dynamics, air-sea fluxes, upper ocean turbulence, including Langmuir circulations, and the remote sensing of ocean surface phenomena using electromagnetic and acoustic techniques.
