Pelecanus Deep Dives - Episode 3: Offshore Wind Energy

Welcome to Pelecanus Deep Dives, where we take a headline from a recent Pelecanus NEWS episode and take a deep dive, just like a pelican, into the article and try and explain some of the more technical, nuanced, or maybe complex ideas of the story to help us all better understand our world. While we will still release these as audio podcasts, this is really made for video as we’ll show diagrams, data visualizations, or photos to better illustrate the article’s topics. Check out our youtube page or social media to watch the video version. In this episode, our host Harrison Parker, a CalTech doctoral Candidate in atmospheric sciences, explains a January 15th Pelecanus NEWS headline about offshore wind energy. See links below!
