We’re pleased to announce that we’re working with Texas A&M University College Station and KAMU-FM on a podcast series called “On the Ocean.”
These two-minute segments are designed to educate the community about ocean observing and ocean issues. Episodes began airing in September; so far we’ve covered the history of the Integrated Ocean Observing System in the U.S., as well as how GCOOS began. We’ve also talked about why we measure the parameters we do and some of the tools we use to monitor our oceans. Coming up: Examples of the products we create.
The project is supported by GCOOS and the TAMU Department of Oceanography. Have ideas for ocean observing system-related topics? Email chris.simoniello@gcoos.org.
