greetings from the Pacific!

Hey all,
 
Greetings from the Pacific Ocean! Things are going well here - we're still underway to our first site, but things are starting to slowly materialize into actual science. I've also (finally) passed over the seasickness hurdle, though that certainly took long enough! We've seen lots of seabirds, and flying fish, and today I got my first glimpse of a manta ray and a dolphin! Our weather has also finally cleared up, at least for the moment.
 
We have a blog up and running about this cruise - a variety of different scientists are contributing both posts and pictures, so be sure to check that out. The address of the blog is:
 
 
Hope you enjoy! Feel free to pass this along to anyone who might be interested (or whose email addresses I couldn't remember or got wrong).
