Reaching Out, From Sea

December 12, 2013

Author Dallas Murphy (left) and WHOI post-doc Benjamin Harden confer on the bridge of R/V Lance recently about the day’s outreach activities during a cruise in the Arctic Ocean. Murphy and Harden will speak at WHOI’s Peanut Butter Club on Friday, December 13, about their experiences at sea and about Murphy’s recent book chronicling a 2011 cruise aboard R/V Knorr led by physical oceanographer Robert Pickart to affirm the existence and origin of a previously unknown oceanic current between Greenland and Iceland. Books will be available for purchase after the talk.(Photo by Amy Cooper)
