Image Of the Day caption:
In Tokyo, Japan this October, WHOI scientist Ken Buesseler and Japanese colleagues briefed US Ambassador to Japan Caroline Kennedy about radioactivity levels and sources in the ocean near the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear power plants. Buesseler measured ocean radioactivity directly after the April, 2011 earthquake and tsunami, followed the dispersal and path of radioactive material, and created a citizen science sampling program to help monitor the material.
