Plastic Marine Debris:<\/small>\u00a0Current State of the Science \u2013 Dr. Amy Siuda (SEA)
\n<\/strong>The scientific study of plastic marine debris is relatively young.\u00a0 As a result, many deceivingly simple questions drive the field: How is plastic marine debris distributed?\u00a0 How much plastic marine debris exists?\u00a0 Is the concentration of plastic marine debris changing through time?\u00a0 What are the biological or economic impacts of plastic marine debris?\u00a0 A summary of our current understanding and future directions will be presented.<\/p>\n


\n<\/em>Education and Outreach from Sea<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0<\/strong>Pat Keoughan<\/strong><\/p>\n

In fall 2012, Pat Keoughan sailed as the Classroom Outreach Coordinator on the Plastics@SEA North Pacific Expedition conducted by Sea Education Association (SEA).\u00a0 Pat worked with 11 schools to share results from the cruise in real time.\u00a0 She will discuss the successes and challenges of this endeavor.<\/p>\n
