Synergy: Ocean Exploration


From amazing animals and high-tech gear to deep sea diving, oceans are exciting places to explore.
Read the recently published children’s book on this topic, then learn more at the website:
EXTREME OCEAN by Sylvia A. Earle shares the adventures of an American marine biologist. From deep sea dives to environmental disaster relief, Earle explores the ocean and its wildlife. Each chapter includes field notes, facts, and hands-on activities. Readers are invited to conduct their own investigations.
Sylvia A. Earle was the first female chief scientist of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Visitors to the NOAA website can learn about this government agency and try out a variety of hands-on activities in the education section.
