chemists Daryle Boyd (left) and Gina Ylitalo showed the Vice Admiral
how they prepare sea lion tissues for analyses of persistent organic
pollutants. During his trip to Seattle, the Vice Admiral was also briefed
about groundfish, the first real-time iridum satellite system that allows
us to communicate directly with sea bottom instruments to “put researchers
on the seafloor,” and Puget Sound Harbor safety, among many other issues.
He also conducted a town hall meeting, met with the Seattle Times
editorial board and other press, and published an editorial article
in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
