We have been learning about marine biology and RV technology in our recent IDL and during our personal learning time, so it was exciting to get a behind the scenes tour of the research at SAMs.<\/p>\n

\"Clachan<\/a>First, we were lucky enough to have a tour of the research vessel Calanus. Just like the real life Octonaughts!

\nThen we were allowed to go into the research lab and see the RVs and the gliders. They will be used underwater all round the world to bring back important data that will tell us more about the ocean.




\nAfter lunch, we had a workshop all about buoyancy and salinity.
\nIt was interesting to work with real-life scientists!<\/p>\n
