Whilst travelling on board RV Investigator, one has the opportunity to engage with user-friendly interfaces and beautiful audio-visual displays of underway data.
During today’s seafloor mapping transects we came ‘face to face’ with a rather sinister rock formation, carved into the granite cliffs of Cleft Island.
Of the numerous seabird species sighted thus far, one that has certainly not lived up to its name is the Shy Albatross.
After a relaxing departure the previous evening, this morning I awoke to the gentle roll of the RV Investigator as we powered up the Tasmanian East Coast.
I am a science and mathematics teacher at Rose Bay High School in Hobart, Tasmania.
