| Resource Description
|
| TRACKING TRASH, Flotsam, Jetsam, and the Science of Ocean Motion. Burns. Aided by an army of beachcombers, oceanographer Dr. Curtis Ebbesmeyer tracks trash in the name of science. The information collected is much more than casual news; it is important scientific data. And with careful analysis, a community of scientists, friends, and beachcombers use his data to understand and protect our ocean. Through an engaging text and unforgettable images, readers meet the woman who started it all, the computer program that makes sense of the data, and several scientists, both on land and on the sea, who are using the discoveries to preserve delicate marine habitats and protect the creatures who live in them. Grades 5-8. #EE-19156.
