ru05-20150201T2130 Delayed Science Profile


Participants worked with research scientists to learn about interdisciplinary oceanographic research taking place at the West Antarctic Peninsula in January 2015. This exciting research mission characterized the connection between ocean circulation, plankton distribution, penguin foraging behavior, and climate change. Students learned the research mission science through a variety of activities including: classroom lessons, following mission blog posts, talking with scientists in Antarctica through Live Video Broadcasts, meeting the research scientists at a spring Student Research Symposium. The experience exposed students to the content of the research mission and the process of science research. The program supported Next Generation Science Standards and addressed Common Core Math and English/Language Arts. The glider was deployed out of Palmer Station, Antarctica and surveyed the Palmer Canyon. This delayed mode dataset contains temperature, salinity, density, chlorophyll a, CDOM, phycoerythrin and oxygen concentration measurements.
