Data and Discovery from the Sea

I was recently reading the January - February 2026 issue of "Science Scope", a publication of the National Science Teaching Association. In this issue, I read the section, "Citizen Science" written by Jill Nugent. She wrote an article entitled "Data and Discovery from the Sea to the Science Classroom." Students can follow in the footsteps of Benjamin Franklin's study of ocean currents, by participating in the citizen science "Global Ocean Surface Ecosystem Alliance Project (GO-SEA)."
