Diane Stanitski-Martin, TAO TRITON Teacher at SeaDr. Diane Stanitski-Martin is a professor at Shippensburg University, PA. This Fall, Diane taught two undergraduate and one graduate class for the three weeks while she was on the ship!

Diane embarked on the NOAA Ship Ka'imimoana August 15, 2002 in Honolulu and arrived on September 5, 2002 in Nuku Hiva (Marquesas Islands - most recent location for the popular TV show "Survivor"). While onboard, Diane hosted several live broadcasts, taught her undergraduate and graduate classes, wrote lessons plans, maintained a daily log, took photographs, interviewed scientists, and engaged in dialogue with other teachers and students, as well as the general public, while on the cruise.

Diane also hosted 8 live broadcasts. If your school is interested in participating in future live broadcasts, please contact jennifer.hammond@noaa.gov. All you need is RealPlayer and a high speed connection to the Internet!

Note for educators: The TAO/TRITON array continues to collect data and the Ka'imimoana continues to maintain the array. Please use the TAO web site, in conjunction with this web site, the lesson plans, daily logs, the videos, and the photos to educate your students about climate, El Niño, and scientific research in general.

Consider this web site, as well as the EPIC web site, a resource for teaching your students.

Many organizations and countries are involved in supporting the
TAO/TRITON Array in the Equatorial Pacific.
Primary U. S. funding is provided by The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
