The past few days, I have tried to prepare myself for being aboard ship and the types of sampling and data analysis I will be doing in the coming days. One way I have done this is by taking a "virtual cruise" with the Hawaii Ocean Time - series. If you are a student of mine or just an interested person, you may want to take a virtual cruise online, too. Here is the link: http://www.soest.hawaii.edu/HOT_WOCE/vcruise/vc.html
I am a sixth grade teacher in Toledo, Oregon at Toledo Elementary School in Lincoln County School District. I will share my experiences on what I learn about microbial oceanography aboard the research vessel Kilo Moana from September 2 - 6, 2010. This experience is sponsored by C-MORE and the Hawaii Ocean Time Series (HOT) program.
