SHORE TO SHIP—WHOI researchers Alexi Shalapyonok, Heidi Sosik, and Robert Olson (left to right) carefully load the FlowCytobot onto a WHOI research vessel for installation on the seafloor at the Martha’s Vineyard Coastal Observatory. The instrument counts and identifies protist cells in the water, and the data are transmitted via undersea cable back to shore. (Tom Kleindinst, WHOI Graphic Services.)[back]
