Three of EES Professor Lindo Atochati’s CSI undergraduate students are participating on a marine research expedition in the Caribbean that he organized with his collaborators from NOAA and NASA.

That research project is important to understand the non-linear motions of seawater and nutrients near the shelf break, and at the same time is critical to manage two marine protected areas in the US Caribbean.

One of the students is doing outreach and writing an impressive real time blog entitled Ocean Expedition to the Virgin Islands, Undergraduate Women rocking science!
