The ocean absorbs about a quarter of carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere. When this carbon dioxide dissolves in seawater, it results in ocean acidification, affecting many ocean species like corals, lobsters, and oysters that make shells and skeletons by combining calcium and carbonate from seawater. However, understanding the effects of ocean acidification is challenging […]| MIT Sea Grant

The LOBSTgER research initiative at MIT Sea Grant explores how generative AI can expand scientific storytelling by building on field-based photographic data. Can you spot the real photo? One of these blue shark images was captured 30 nautical miles off the coast of Cape Cod; the other was generated by LOBSTgER’s diffusion models after 30,000 […]| MIT Sea Grant
