Track A – US Geological Survey – Bathymetry
US Geological Survey - Bathymetry
Watch the taped School Day demonstration.
Join the USGS St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center on an adventure in the field! Our team of scientists take you on board a personal watercraft near downtown St. Pete to show you how they collect bathymetry data – which is the depth of the ocean floor (in this case, Tampa Bay). You will learn how the speed of sound is used to calculate water depth, and you will even get to calculate depths for your own bathymetry map in our interactive worksheet.
