We and our partners at University of Florida's Scientist in Every Florida School initiative are gearing up for another exciting semester of live webinars with marine science experts!
The fall series gets underway at 1 PM on Sept. 28 with Dr. Barbara Brunnick of Taras Oceanographic Foundation who will share her dolphin research. Later in the semester we will learn about the role of sharks in the food web from Sara Casareto of Florida International University and explore the secrets of Sargassum with Dr. Brian Lapointe of Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute at Florida Atlantic University.
We hope you will join our livestreams, but if the timing doesn't work, have no fear! Recordings of all past Ocean Expert Exchanges, along with complementary educational resources, are available. Visit our OEE webpage for details and registration information.

We had a busy summer at-sea onboard R/V ANGARI, beginning with USF College of Marine Science's Oceanography Camp for Girls in June. Following this, we hosted two engaging educator-only COE: Sharks expeditions. Exp 66 was out of Miami with UF Thompson Earth Systems Institute’s Environmental Education Fellows. We then returned to Palm Beach County for Exp 68, which was made possible with funding from the Great Charity Challenge.
August has focused on shore-based back-to-school programming for teachers, including the School District of Palm Beach County and Broward County Public Schools' STEM programming. We look forward to continuing to work with everyone during the school year!
