Tracking Trash: Flotsam, Jetsam, and the Science of Ocean Motion

Oceanographer Dr. Curtis Ebbesmeyer, aided by beachcombers, tracks trash in the ocean for science. From sneakers to hockey gloves, Curt monitors the watery fate of human-made cargo. His data, more than casual news, is crucial scientific information. With careful analysis, Curt and a community of scientists, friends, and beachcombers use his data to understand and protect the ocean. This book is marketed to readers ages 10 to 14.
