and computer technology that are providing scientists with
current information
about the New England coastal ocean floor and how this ecosystem
is changing
over time. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 16pt; color: black;">-
Find out how
citizens and classrooms can participate in an exciting
scientific image analysis
project, and learn how to get started. B</span><span

and how to
use it with your class. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">-
Participants will have hands-on individual instruction in how to
use and
analyze images collected over time of seafloor organisms,
biodiversity, and
invasive species, and find out how to carry the project forward
into the school
year.</span></p>
