Expansion of Discovery of Sound in the Sea (DOSITS) Content and Outreach FY11-FY12

Abstract

The long-term goals of this effort are to educate the public on the basic science of sound in the sea, how people and animals use underwater sound to accomplish many of the tasks for which we use light in air, and how sound in the ocean affects marine life. The products of this effort include an interactive on-line resource, a CD-ROM, and printed materials. The specific objective of this effort is to develop and maintain resources that address the long-term goal. The resources include a website, an educational CD-ROM, a tri-fold educational pamphlet, and an informational 16-page booklet.
