I had the great pleasure of working with AP reporter Caleb Jones last week when we explored and studied seamounts together off the big island of Hawaii. Read his story as he recounts the 8 hour dive we did together in the PICES V submarine to Cook seamount, a 13,000 foot mountain rising from the seafloor. Great pleasure to be joined on the expedition by my fellow CI team members Sanjayan, Kevin and Lida. This is when ocean science is at its best.


Greg encounters all kinds of big sea animals, including sharks, when he scuba dives, but when he comes to visit us, he keeps his distance from horses and other scary critters.
