Waller Blogs from Alaska Coral Diving Expedition
University of Maine Assistant Research Professor and polar ecologist Rhian Waller, who is collecting cold-water coral samples among icebergs in Alaskan fjords as a National Geographic grantee, posted a new blog and photographs of her expedition on the NG Explorers Journal website. Waller reports that expedition members slept through an earthquake, which caused pieces of icebergs to break off.
