Over the past two decades, Sargassum blooms have expanded exponentially, harming coastal ecosystems and economies. Despite the growing ecological and socioeconomic impacts, the controls governing the degradation of stranded Sargassum in sandy beach environments remain poorly constrained, hindering educated remediation efforts. This dissertation investigates the decomposition of particulate and dissolved Sargassum-derived organic matter in permeable carbonate and silicate beach sands, integrating controlled laboratory experiments, field measurements, and molecular-level analyses to resolve degradation pathways across multiple scales. The results reveal how substrate form, environmental conditions, and sediment mineralogy jointly regulate carbon turnover from solid biomass to molecular constituents. Flyer is attached.

The inaugural speaker of this academic year's series will be Dr. Vasu Misra. The following is the information about the colloquium: Speaker: Dr. Vasu Misra, Florida State University Title: How anomalous is 2026 turning out to be from an Indian Monsoon perspective Abstract: The evolving El Ni?o?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is grabbing our attention?but a remarkable story has already been unfolding over the Indian subcontinent. The 2026 Indian summer monsoon began with an unusually sluggish and rainfall-deficient phase, raising an intriguing question: How anomalous is 2026 from an Indian monsoon perspective, and how well have we anticipated it? In this talk, I will place the unusual evolution of the 2026 monsoon in the context of historical variability and examine what seasonal forecasts available in early June could?and could not?tell us about the season ahead. I will discuss several well-known sources of predictability, including ENSO, the Indian Ocean Dipole, and other slowly varying ocean?atmosphere processes, as well as the fundamental challenges that limit seasonal prediction of the monsoon. Beyond 2026, the talk will use the Indian monsoon as a window into a broader question in climate science: How much of a season's behavior can we predict months in advance, and where does predictability break down? Time: 3:00 PM, Friday, September 4, 2026 Location: EOA 1044 Contact: Prof. Zhaohua Wu (zwu at fsu.edu) A flyer for the colloquium is also attached.

Colloquium - 499 DSL Seminar Room Abstract: AI has emerged as the most transformative and revolutionary technique, reshaping many aspects of our lives. Its intersection with science, particularly physics, has opened new avenues for understanding our world and universe. This understanding is grounded in centuries of exploration by brilliant minds. Physics studies today predominantly rely on rigorous methods founded on universal physical laws. I will discuss integrating advanced learning techniques, notably Bayesian machine learning, into computational physics in this presentation. This integration is crucial in an interdisciplinary field that combines mathematics, physics, and computer science to address meaningful, real-world problems. As the first principle, physics offers novel techniques and insights for tackling complex tasks in complex, structured data analysis. I envision synergizing physics and probabilistic learning to create a formidable tool for exploring new frontiers.
