Dr. Kate Davis<\/strong> is an oceanographer studying some of the smallest organisms in the open ocean, called foraminifera. What makes them special? They become microscopic fossils that can tell us how the oceans responded to climate change in the past and what the future could be like for our watery world.<\/p>\n Lecture recommended for ages 12 and older.<\/em><\/p>\n Tickets are $10; free for Members. Ticket includes lecture with Q&A and an evening exploration of James Cameron \u2013 Challenging the Deep<\/strong><\/em><\/a>. Exhibition open from 5:30-7pm. Lecture begins at 7pm. Not a member yet? Join today!<\/a><\/p>\n Dr. Kate Davis has always been fascinated by the natural world and especially the ocean. She received her PhD from the University of California Davis from the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, and recently joined the Department of Marine, Earth, and Atmospheric Sciences at North Carolina State University. Dr. Davis’s research focuses on fossilized plankton in the open ocean and what they can tell us about the Earth’s past and future.<\/p>\n Join ocean experts in this special lecture series to dive deep into the knowns and unknowns of our watery world. Each month, we will feature a presentation from a renowned scientist (7\u20138pm) and an evening viewing of the special exhibition, James Cameron – Challenging the Deep<\/strong><\/a><\/em> (open 5:30\u20137pm).
