The National Science Foundation will host a webinar event with marine biologist Dr. Amy Moran. Dr. Moran and her team will be broadcasting live from McMurdo Station, Antarctica where they conduct research in the coldest ocean water on the planet. Learn how researchers dive under sea ice to collect sea creatures and discover how animals like sea spiders and sea urchins survive in the cold waters of the Southern Ocean.
In addition, you can read more about the experiences of PolarTREC educator Amy Osborne who joined Dr. Moran's team in 2019 at her expedition page.
