Comments for Skidaway Institute of Oceanography
In late June, several dozen miles off the Southeast Georgia coast, a group of Sol C. Johnson High School (JHS) educators stood inside the R/V Savannah, looking over the shoulder of a University of Georgia Skidaway Institute of Oceanography (SkIO) scientist, trying to help him spot various plankton in images quickly flashing across a computer screen. After traveling roughly 25 nautical miles offshore, the R/V Savannah reached water with a depth of 25 meters, and the educators followed the scientists to the back of the vessel, where they deployed multiple scientific instruments, including one that collected water jam-packed with the plankton the SkIO scientists had introduced in their presentation.
