Scientific expedition to the world's deepest undersea volcanic rift
http://www.thesearethevoyages.net/schools.html
In its 2007 report on 'Investigating the Oceans', the House of Commons Science and Technology Select Committee noted that 'marine science has clear attractions to young people and could be drawn into many topics to increase interest in science, such as biodiversity in the deep ocean'. And suggested that 'a focus on extreme environments (space and oceans) would entice young people into science'. We agree wholeheartedly, and here is our pick of educational links about undersea volcanoes and deep-sea life:.
