The amount of human plastic debris in the ocean continues to rise as human production and consumption of plastic persists across the globe.

This summer’s first two-week session of the SEA Quest high school online program focused on coral reefs and climate change.

The final days of S-299 were a whirlwind. In the wee hours of July 5, the students successfully completed their mission; all watches worked together and accomplished navigating to and completing a neuston net tow at three CalCOFI sampling stations.

We wrapped up the second session of Science at SEA, C-297C, this past Wednesday.

Hi all,


Today’s the day! Mission officially starts today as of morning watch, but as B Watch, we’ve got a special role: prep C watch to start mission, and to bring us all to the finish line. It just so happened that we had the honour of starting the day off with Dawn Watch and ending it with Evening Watch.

At 01:00 dawn watch started. B Watch took the deck and began tending sails and processing the samples collected by the previous watch.
