Mayewski celebrated as Ocean Exemplar
The World Ocean Observatory has recognized Paul Mayewski for his inspiring contributions to ocean knowledge and advocacy.
W2O, which advocates for the health and sustainability of the ocean through an accessible worldwide network of communication, hails the director of the University of Maine Climate Change Institute as an Ocean Exemplar or special Citizen of the Ocean.
W2O selected Mayewski for the designation for his best practices in ocean education, from the classroom to the reef.
The intrepid explorer and author has scientific achievements too numerous to mention, says W2O, “and his passion for developing understanding of the multiple controls placed on climate is both infectious and inspiring.”
