The Gulf Watch Alaska (GWA) program and Principal Investigators (PIs) have been busy this summer preparing proposals and collecting data. Despite a persistent pandemic, many PIs have been happily out doing fieldwork – tending to their instruments, bagging and tagging samples, and appreciating the salty air. A brief summary of our program’s second quarter activities and accomplishment can be found in the latest issue of the GWA Quarterly Currents (vol 5.2).
