New Zealand IPY-CAML Voyage to the Southern<br />
Ocean<br />
Through February<br />
and into Mid-March<br />
2008, the RV<br />
Tangaroa will be on a<br />
research cruise to<br />
collect marine life<br />
samples and survey<br />
the Ross Sea. A<br />
joint effort <strong>of</strong> the<br />
New Zealand<br />
government, the<br />
International Polar Year (IPY) program, and <strong>Census</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
Antarctic <strong>Marine</strong> <strong>Life</strong> (CAML), the voyage will depart from<br />
Wellington for the southern reaches <strong>of</strong> the Ross Sea<br />
sampling as far east as ice conditions allow and then will<br />
continue sampling as they return on a northerly route back<br />
to Wellington. The Science Learning Hub, an initiative<br />
funded through the New Zealand Ministry <strong>of</strong> Research,<br />
Science, and Technology, features an informational page on<br />
the cruise as well as educational links and activities. Follow<br />
along as the cruise progresses at CAML and the Science<br />
Learning Hub.<br />
The <strong>Census</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Marine</strong> <strong>Life</strong> is a global network <strong>of</strong> researchers in more than 80 nations<br />

<strong>Life</strong>-past, present, and future-will be released in 2010. www.coml.org<br />
