« Previous | Next »
WHOI scientists Steve Elgar (in yellow) and Britt Raubenheimer (on shore with her guide dog Whit) use a 1950s-era amphibious vehicle to fasten arrays of sensors on a sandy seabed to measure waves, currents, the water’s turbidity, and other features throughout the New River Inlet. They battled breaking waves and currents as fast as 3 knots. ( David Clark, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution)
