This trip will take you through one of the world's best exposures of oceanic lithosphere (ophiolite). It begins in the mantle (peridotite) and works upward to pillow basalts and overlying sediments. A general overview of the formation and interpretation of an ophiolite is provided as background material to the specific examples found at the Smith River location in northern California.

This site presents an account of a research cruise to investigate how the food webs in different oceanic habitats vary. The scientists wanted to see ocean life in its natural environment and conduct experiments that would not be possible in the laboratory. They looked specifically at three types of ocean habitat: the open ocean, the continental shelf, and an upwelling area. The researchers were hoping ... Full description.
