What We Did

 

What We Learned

I was involved in transcribing the data collected from the cruise the researchers participated in on the east coast.

Questions We Have

How will this impact us in our world?

Why are we studying this?

Has this been studied in the past?  Is the data being compared now?

Connections to Teaching

Connections to teaching: the importance of accurate data gathering and recording – as well as transcribing collected data correctly.
