Revenue surged 77% from the prior year, signaling strong growth momentum. The organization ran a surplus of $114K, a strong 27% operating margin.
Research and Education: Bahamas Marine EcoCentre focuses on marine science education and research and promotes scientific and artistic activities that foster environmental stewardship. In 2023, activities were focused in three geographic areas: Bahamas, Western Australia, and Northern Chile. Research on gypsum depositional system in lagoons in the Atacama Desert, which initiated as a consulting service in 2017, became a funded research project in 2018. Supported by the Chilean mining company, SQM, BME is investigating the role of microbes in sedimentation in the desert lagoon systems.

Research and education activities in the Bahamas are based out of the Darby Island Research Station, Bahamas which is maintained and operated by Bahamas Marine EcoCentre. In 2023, we focused on preparation of two manuscripts, both of which were submitted for publication in 2024. One was an evaluation of early diagenetic signatures of lithium and stable strontium isotopes in shallow marine carbonate sediments submitted to Chemical Geology. The second was synthesis of previous Bahamian microbialite research in an invited paper for Annual Reviews of Marine Science. Costs for Bahamian program services were mainly associated with station maintenance and travel.

Our second geographic area of research was the Atacama Desertof northern Chile where we continued monitoring stromatolite growth in saline lagoons. This research involved one post doctoral fellow and a consultant. Program expenses pertain to field activities, laboratory analyses and writing reports and publications. As reported in 2022, three peer reviewed papers were published in 2022 and additional papers are currently in preparation.
