We and our partners at the University of Florida's Scientist in Every Florida School initiative are thrilled to be returning for yet another engaging semester of live Ocean Expert Exchange webinars!
There will be three events in the spring lineup, featuring topics ranging from billfish conservation to Florida's giant manta ray population. Details and supporting resources for the spring events, as well as recordings and educational resources from prior Ocean Expert Exchanges, can be found on our OEE program page.
WE'RE RAY-DIATING EXCITEMENT FOR THIS 3D MODEL!
You may remember the great hammerhead shark 3D model released in 2020... Well, we can't wait to introduce you to the next true to life model created from an ANGARI research expedition!
We've teamed up with Digital Life and Marine Megafauna Foundation scientists to create a 3D model of a giant manta ray with imagery captured off the Florida coast. Read more here and stay tuned for the model release later this semester.
