This site reflects the work and interests of students enrolled in the fall elective course in marine science. The information presented was generated from their own field work, laboratory work, our frequent guest lecturers, or from topics of their own choosing. The site is a work in progress intended to give a sense of what our students choose to study. We would also like to present a small sampling of some of the areas of the vast field of marine science.

"..it will remain forever the most vivid memory in my life, solely because of its cosmic chill and isolation, the eternal and absolute darkness, and the indescribable beauty of its inhabitants."
-William Beebe in the bathysphere off of Bermuda in 1934
