Ocean Classroom (Live!) Podcast: Surfing the Southern Ocean

What can a robotic surfboard tell us about the rapidly warming Antarctic? In the next episode of GSO Ocean Classroom (Live!), join GSO's Holly Morin and Ryan Newell of the University of Washington as they discuss the connections between the ocean, atmosphere and sea ice in the Southern Ocean. Using a Wave Glider—a wave-propelled autonomous surface vehicle—Newell and others at the University of Washington are measuring how heat and other properties move between the water and the air in some of the stormiest seas on the planet.
