Daniel Costa Ocean Quotations

Much of the world's weather is determined by what happens in the Antarctic, so understanding the Southern Ocean is a key to understanding global climate.

They are a great animal for collecting oceanographic data and giving us updates on ocean conditions in the California Current.

We're using these animals as ocean sensors to tell us about oceanographic conditions, and we're also learning how they use the ocean--where they go and what they do.

We're using these animals as ocean sensors. We're also learning how they use the ocean - where they go and what they do.

We can now use animals to show us things like the thermal properties and cooling rates of the ocean and the structure of the water column, and they can often get valuable data that would be hard to collect by other means.
