Ask Ms. Staup

Ms. Staup, thanks for an interesting phone conference- it sounds like you have a great crew to work with! Here is a question from one of my students:

Sohan: How many stations are you going to and how many times do you go to each? Were the stations already there?

Thanks,

Lollie

Sohan- 
We have planned 175 stations. The stations are determined by longitude and latitude. They were also planned out based on some of the geological features of the Arctic basin. The stations aren't marked out in the ocean but the ship stops based on the coordinates of the latitude and longitude. Thanks for questions.
Lollie- Thanks for joining us.
