Wow!  Another gorgeous sunset!
Dave Zimmerman prepares the new buoy for deployment tomorrow.
The fish bite test is designed to see if shark bites will penetrate through a new cable being tested due to it lighter weight.
This flying fish flew onto the ship and was found in the morning.  Note its wing-like fins. Jason and Takeshi enjoy dinner on the set, our set that we used during today's broadcast. Jon Bumgardner prepares his cable with red snapper fish heads as bait for sharks and other fish.
Here is the buoy with a sunset backdrop.    

Note for educators: The TAO/TRITON array continues to collect data and the Ka'imimoana continues to maintain the array. Please use the TAO web site, in conjunction with this web site, the lesson plans, daily logs, the videos, and the photos to educate your students about climate, El Niño, and scientific research in general.

Consider this web site, as well as the EPIC web site, a resource for teaching your students.

Many organizations and countries are involved in supporting the
TAO/TRITON Array in the Equatorial Pacific.
Primary U. S. funding is provided by The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
