Hands-on Oceanography

December 27, 2014

Lily Helfrich, a student at Northwestern University and a native of Falmouth, Mass., came back to Woods Hole for the 2014 WHOI Summer Student Fellowship program. On the annual student trip aboard WHOI’s coastal research vessel R/V Tioga, Lily helped maneuver a CTD rosette sampler into place for deployment. Lily’s summer research on a fish species’ genetic adaptations to pollution, working with biologist Neel Aluru, was highlighted in WHOI’s Oceanus magazine.(Photo by Jayne Doucette, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution)
