Description

Around the Americas: Data for Heat Flux and Water Temperatures From the Expedition

Please join the Around the Americas Expedition and Dr. Andy Jessup, Senior Principal Oceanographer from the Applied Physics Lab at the University of Washington, as they review the data collected from the heat flux and water temperatures from their journey around North and South America.

The Around the Americas Expedition is a 14-month voyage, that just launched in May. They will circumnavigate North and South America aboard the 48-foot sailboat, One Ocean. The mission focuses on scientific research, education, and community outreach to raise awareness about ocean health. Building on Captain Mark Schrader’s original 2009–2010 journey, the expedition will compare oceanic changes over the past 15 years.
