font-family:"Courier New"'>This workshop will explore the latest technology and
methods used to study the basis of the entire marine food web, phytoplankton.
These microscopic organisms barely seen with the naked eye support all life in
the ocean and are important to global climate. Utilizing light, carbon dioxide,
and nutrients, these organisms dictate such significant marine cycles as the
feeding habits of million dollar fisheries to the diet of endangered migrating
whales.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
