SUMMARY:Teen Science Cafe: A Day in the Life of a Marine Scientist
DESCRIPTION:Using Technology to Monitor Climate Change\nHave you ever wondered what marine scientists actually do? Do all of them work with dolphins or coral? While there are a ton that do\, there are scientists doing cool work in all disciplines. From studying the bacteria that live on hydrothermal vents to recording the conditions that coral reefs can live in\, none of this science would be possible without the use of sensors. Sensor technology enables us to reliably monitor the things we want to study. With climate change increasing\, it is important that affordable sensors are readily available\, so we can measure many parameters and continue to mitigate human-caused changes. In this talk\, Liz Farquhar\, a current Marine Science graduate student\, will talk about what she and her friends actually do as marine scientists and demonstrate how they can use a low-cost water-level sensor to monitor and mitigate sea level rise. \nAbout our speaker\nLiz Farquhar earned a BS in environmental science from UNC-Chapel Hill and is currently working on her Masters of Marine Science from UNCW. She is interested in how technology can be used to help fight climate change and is working on developing a low-cost CO2 flux sensor to study the movement of carbon in/out of blue carbon habitats. \nThis program will be held in person at the Daily Planet Cafe AND streamed online on YouTube.
