This story highlights the ever-present tension between the way of "observation" (you can learn a lot by just watching) and "measurement" (which invokes in some sense a perturbation of what is measured)... But, why should one choose? To me as a scientist, there is joy and power in both approaches!

This video (linked in the above blog as well) from Mary Silver is also fascinating

Marine Snow Days | Saltwater Science
Marine snow isn't made of water, like regular snow. Instead, it is made up of "detritus," which is a fancy word for gunk. This gunk is a slimy mix of dead organisms, diatoms, sand, dust, and the slimy...
This is a great read on the history of "marine snow": the ubiquitous underwater phenomenon, which Rachel Carson called "the most stupendous snow fall on earth". This constant rain of biological debris is critical in the ocean's ability to sequester carbon. www.nature.com/scitable/blo...

Thanks to @schmidtfellows.bsky.social for this amazing opportunity to share my science and my sense of wonder about our oceans. This ended up being a fantastic learning experience.
