OMSI Science Pub

Where: BridgePort Brew Pub

Science Pub is an informal get-together where you can interact with experts and where there's no such thing as a silly question. No scientific background is required - just curiosity, a sense of humor, and an appetite for food, drinks, and knowledge. We meet once a month. Topics are focused on advances in science and technology that directly affect our lives, and the experts are leading researchers and scientists in the field. Don't expect a speaker behind the podium! It's relaxed, interactive, and fun. Topic: Sounds from the Southern Ocean In 2005 and 2006, researchers from Oregon State University's Hatfield Marine Science Center traveled to Antarctica to deploy underwater microphones, known as "hydrophones," which captured the sounds of underwater earthquakes, marine mammals, and noise caused by retreating ice sheets. Tonight we'll learn how this technology is used to locate underwater volcanoes and to hear the voices of the great whales of the Southern Ocean, which surrounds Antarctica. Check out the daily logs and pictures from Bill's 2006 research voyage to Antarctica here. Bill Hanshumaker is the marine public educator for Hatfield Marine Science Center and Oregon State University Sea Grant. His specialties include marine mammals, marine resource management, deep sea geology, coastal hazards, and Antarctic research.
