Under the guidance of professor and oceanographer George Luther, UD CEOE students participated in a series of dives to a depth of 1.7 miles below the ocean surface. These research dives took place in DSV Alvin from March 27 to April 16, 2017, at 9 North, a region of hydrothermal vent activity situated along the East Pacific Rise in the Pacific Ocean.
A piece I'm really proud of ... my highlight reel of our 15 dives on the East Pacific Rise in DSV Alvin. I think I'm still processing the surreal experience and all I saw down there ... truly an experience of a lifetime!
