Webinar: Benthics in Antarctica

Join us for upcoming real-time events with PolarTREC teacher, Tina
Sander, and scientists looking at the benthic, or seafloor dwelling
organisms, in Antarctica! Participants will learn more about the unique
ecology of the sea floor and how scientists are studying this unique
ecosystem.

These events are hosted through the PolarTREC PolarConnect (formerly
Live from IPY!) program, and participants will have a chance to learn
from the scientists, ask questions, and chat with others during the
presentation.
