activity (Courtesy Doug Levin @ NOAA CBO), attendees also had the
opportunity to drive one of our home built PVC ROvs (Aquabotz kit) and
control a VideoRay (courtesy Doug Levin). Also on display was our
Gavia AUV DORA and Matt Oliver's lab at the table next to us had their
Slocum glider on display. Thanks to everyone who helped out before,
during, and after the event.

Floodgates Might Not Save Venice

Floodgates Might Not Save Venice

The construction of mobile floodgates aims to safeguard the 1,300-year-old island city of Venice. It's an ambitious engineering project, but some scientists say it may not be sufficient to protect Venice from rising sea levels due to climate change. Venice rose from mudflats in the middle of a lagoon which forms the largest wetland in the Mediterranean. One of the world's most endangered cities, it has been subject to increasing flooding due to sinking land — but also to rising sea levels.
