last trip last day
Here are some final photos from our final trip. Many thanks to Rob Scarrow, Tim Mclean and the KINSC at Haverford College for funding this work. Thanks also to Chris Reddy and Catherine Carmichael (funded by DEEP-C) for sharing their knowledge of tar balls in the Gulf with us. We look forward to sharing our results with you all in the near future.
