<h2 class="orange">Science Made Public</h2>
<p>During the month of August, the <a
href="http://www.whoi.edu">Woods Hole
Oceanographic Institution's</a> Exhibit
Center and Information Office are
sponsoring a series of public talks by
WHOI scientists and engineers designed for
a lay audience about WHOI's human-occupied
submersible <em>Alvin</em>. Everyone is
welcome to attend.</p>
<p> All talks begin at 3 PM (except August
19 which will be at 2:30 PM) in Redfield
Auditorium, 45 Water Street, Woods Hole. </p>

<h3 class="orange">Autonomous Underwater
Robots: How They Work </h3>
<p><strong>Dana Yoerger, Ocean Engineer </strong><br>
Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs)
like WHOI's REMUS, <em>Sentry</em>, and
<em>SeaBED</em> are important tools used
to explore the ocean. They are
controlled by on-board computers and
powered by internal batteries; they keep
track of their own motions and ensure
that their sensors are operating
properly. Learn about the science and
engineering that goes into creating
vehicles that can carry out missions
with little or no help from people. </p>

<h3 class="orange"><em>Alvin</em> and the
Wet Wi-Fi</h3>
<p><strong>Maurice Tivey, Marine Geologist</strong><br>
Sound has traditionally been the
communications medium of choice in the
ocean, but engineers at Woods Hole
Oceanographic Institution developed an
underwater "optical modem" that uses
light to transmit information at a much
higher rate than is capable with sound
and that was recently used by scientists
and engineers to collect data from a
seafloor borehole observatory. Learn
more about this new tool, how it was
used, and what the data from a recent <em>Alvin</em>
dive on the Juan de Fuca plate showed.</p>

<h3 class="orange">Humans in the Deep
Ocean, From Imagination to Reality</h3>
<p> <strong>Bruce Strickrott, <em>Alvin</em>
Group Manager</strong><br>
In 1870, Jules Verne penned his famous
novel, <em>20,000 Leagues Under the Sea</em>,
putting on paper as fiction what many
had dreamed about--the ability to visit
and explore the unknown depths of the
ocean. Since then, Verne's dream of deep
ocean exploration has become a reality
and has resulted in profound discoveries
about the ocean and our planet . Learn
about the history of human-occupied
submersibles, starting from the early
primitive designs and working toward how
we operate <em>Alvin</em> today, as
well as plans to take <em>Alvin</em>
even deeper over coming years. <strong>During
this presentation, Strickrott will
moderate a live phone call to the
research vessel <em>Atlantis</em> to
hear first hand about <em>Alvin’s</em>
latest adventures.</strong>.</p>

<h3 class="orange">Life in an Earthquake
Zone</h3>
<p> <strong>Susan Mills, Marine Biologist</strong><br>
Deep-sea hydrothermal vent sites host
dense communities of animals in a food
web built on chemical energy from
beneath the seafloor. These sites
experience frequent disturbances, like
volcanic eruptions, that sometimes wipe
out entire communities. How does life
return to sites after such an event?
Learn how a site on the East Pacific
Rise was recolonized by distant
populations of animals after a 2006
eruption and how its transformation has
added to our understanding of how these
communities persist in this unstable
environment.</p>
