Branner Earth Sciences Library & Map Collection exhibit series: Oceans In the 2025–2026 academic year, Branner Library’s exhibit series will explore Earth’s oceans’ complex biological and ecological systems that regulate climate and support life. June’s exhibition explores the dynamic chemical and ecological processes that shape one of Earth’s most complex ocean basins. This exhibition highlights research on oxygen-depleted waters, nutrient cycling, monsoon-driven circulation, and the interactions between marine chemistry, climate, and biological productivity. The exhibit is available for viewing Monday through Friday during regular library open hours. Check out past exhibits and subscribe to the Branner Library Newsletter.
