Snapshots From the Field: Searching for Sharks

As part of the first expedition of OET's expanded ocean exploration program, From Shore to the Abyss, a team of scientists, conservationists, and educators have been conducting research to quantify shark and ray diversity and relative abundance around Maui and the island of Hawai'i using low-impact and non-invasive research techniques. This expedition is made possible by a collaborative partnership between OET and National Geographic, resulting in a high-impact expedition that advances our discovery of multiple disciplines of oceanography, marine ecology, and conservation.
