Image Of the Day caption:
Former WHOI engineer and founder of Teledyne Webb Research Doug Webb (right) chats with Center for Marine Robotics Director Jim Bellingham in front of a wall of Webb's inventions: Slocum gliders. The winged vehicles change their buoyancy to rise and fall in the water and generate forward momentum, and they also carry a changing payload of oceanographic sensors. In recognition of his service to ocean science, Webb will receive the 2017 Ocean Sciences Award tonight at the American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting in New Orleans.
Doug Webb is the first recipient of the CMR Innovators Award.
