The Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS) is a research institute of the University of Miami located in its Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science (RSMAS) in Miami, Florida. CIMAS brings together the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science and other partner universities with those of the NOAAA to develop a Center of Excellence that is relevant to understanding the Earth's oceans and atmosphere within the context of NOAA's mission. In 2010. CIMAS was restructured in light of its successful submission to a competitive award program to keep pace with changes in scientific and societal priorities and changes in both NOAA and the University of Miami's research priorities. CIMAS is one of sixteen NOAA Cooperative Institutes (CIs). The nine partner universities include: Florida Atlantic University (FAU) Florida International University (FIU) Florida State University (FSU) Nova Southeastern University (Nova) University of Florida (UF) University of Miami (UM) University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez (UPRM) University of South Florida (USF) University of Virgin Islands (USVI) CIMAS research themes include: Climate research and impacts Tropical Weather Sustained Ocean and Coastal Observation Ocean Modeling Ecosystem Modeling and Forecasting Ecosystem Management Protection and Restoration of Resources

St Sampson's Church, York
St Sampson's Church, York

St Sampson's Church is a former parish church in the city centre of York, England. It lies on Church Street, near St Sampson's Square. The church sits across the line of the wall of Roman Eboracum, and the first church on the site was probably built before the Norman Conquest, as a fragment of an early 11th-century cross has been found in the wall of a house on Newgate, within the former churchyard. Foundations of a Norman wall have also been discovered underneath the present church. The church was first recorded in 1154, and from 1394 the advowson belonged to the Vicars Choral of York Minster. It is dedicated to Saint Sampson of York, the only church in England with this dedication. The church was gradually rebuilt in the 15th century, the south aisle being rebuilt in the 1400s, and the north aisle dating in the 1440s, while the west tower was rebuilt in the 1480s. In the 1549, there was a plan to merge the parish with that of St Helen, Stonegate, and although this did not happen, St Sampson did gain two bells from St Helen. In 1644, the tower was damaged during the English Civil War, and the Parliamentarian troops subsequently destroyed most of the monuments in the church.Between 1845 and 1848, most of the church was rebuilt by Frederick Bell but kept with the Gothic style, and a vestry was added. Because of this work, the church is considered to be more Victorian in construction than medieval. The tower survived, but was reduced in height, being heightened again in 1910. Other pre-Victorian elements of the church include the east window of the north aisle, some roof bosses, the bell-frame and bells, the north and south doors, the piscina, and various monuments. In 1969, the church closed, and many of its fittings were removed. However, it was restored by George Pace, and in 1974 it reopened as a centre for the elderly. He inserted a mezzanine floor over the north aisle, to give space for offices, and placed a kitchen in the south aisle. The sanctuary was converted into a chapel, with a reredos from All Saints, Falsgrove.The church was listed as Grade II in June 1954.

2 Jubbergate
2 Jubbergate

2 Jubbergate, also known as 4 Jubbergate, is a grade II* listed building in the city centre of York, in England. The older part of the building was constructed in the 14th-century, at the end of Jubbergate, where it met Newgate and Little Shambles. This part is of two bays, timber framed, with a jettied upper floor, and brick infill on the ground floor. In the early-17th century, another timber-framed building was constructed next to it, in two parts: a two bay, two storied section with an original attic and cellar, and a smaller three storey section, the two perhaps having been built a few years apart. Over time, the two have become interconnected and are now a single property. Internally, the 17th-century section has an original chimney with a fireplace in the attic, and there is a plaster cornice in one first floor room which dates from the 18th-century. By 1830, the building was in commercial use, as the Taylor, Cook & Co chemists and art shop. With the creation of nearby Parliament Street, it became a prime location for its new market, and by the 1870s it was a hatters' shop. In 1928, the building was restored by Brierley and Rutherford. They rebuilt the north-east wall of the 14th-century wing, inserted a new staircase in the 17th-century wing and built a brick extension to its rear, replaced the windows, and renewed some of the timber.Following the reconstruction, the building served for many years as the White Rose Cafe. It was grade II* listed in 1954, and in 1957, the York Conservation Trust purchased the freehold. As part of the creation of the Shambles Market, the neighbouring buildings were demolished, and it is now freestanding, almost surrounded by the market. It later became Gert and Henry's restaurant.

Shambles Market
Shambles Market

The Shambles Market is a daily market held in the city centre of York, England. It was created in the 1950s after the clearance of a large area next to the Shambles, when large sections of the Shambles were demolished, including the entire street known as Little Shambles. Until 1955 the city's main markets were in Parliament Street and St Sampson's Square. That year, the market in St Sampson's Square was closed, and the one in Parliament Street was reduced to opening only on Saturdays. The displaced market stalls were offered space in a newly cleared area between Newgate, Jubbergate and The Shambles. Today, the demolition of the historic buildings that originally stood in the place of the market is seen as insensitive, since a great deal of historic fabric was destroyed.The original intention was to name the market "Gell Garth", inspired by "Gail Garth", the mediaeval name for the area. However, it was ultimately named Newgate Market, after the nearby street. The market was refurbished in 2014, at a cost of about £1,600,000. It was given the new name, "Shambles Market", after the most famous street in the area. The revamped market had 86 stalls, a slight increase, and seven kiosks, with most of the kiosks selling food. At the time, the City of York Council stated that the Saturday market was oversubscribed, but that there were spare stalls on other days. A section of the market can be covered with a marquee for special events, such as farmers' markets.Permanent stalls were constructed for sales of meat and fish, while other goods were sold from temporary stalls. Stalls at the market include Cross of York, which opened in 1957 and won the national Fishmonger of the Year competition in 2020, and Swain Family Butchers, which celebrated is 50th anniversary in 2022.
