Log Post: Wrapping Up

Five weeks have gone by since R/V Falkor left from Darwin, Australia sailing out to study the sea surface microlayer: thin as a hair, yet absolutely key for chemical and biological processes affecting the entire planet. While transiting to Guam, the crew and scientific party are busy demobilizing and packing – getting everything prepared to travel back to home labs, and … Continued

Log Post: Sea-Surface Microlayer Week 4 Video Update

As the expedition comes to a close, this week’s #AirToSea video update demonstrates how the various autonomous vehicles – flying and floating – collect and analyze samples. Watch to find out how their results will all tie together for a greater understanding of the Sea-Surface Microlayer.

Log Post: Keeping At It

“It took half an hour to drill those three holes” sighs Scott Brown, Physicist and Electronic Engineer, looking at the tiny penetrations on top of the UAV. Fiber optic cables now poke out, ready to measure sunlight and send the information to the payload (scientific package) inside the aircraft to be recorded. It has been … Continued
