Information about SEA Semester: Oceans and Climate
SEA Semester: Oceans and Climate is a semester program for undergraduate
science students offering an in-depth study of the oceans' role in the
climate system, including courses in ocean science and public policy, and
nautical science.  Twenty-four students from around the country are living
and studying on the SEA campus for six weeks, in preparation for a six-week
research cruise aboard the SEA sailing research vessel, SSV Robert C.
Seamans, from Puerto Vallarta, Mexico to Tahiti, French Polynesia.
