MURIMURI (June 2012) The Ocean Ecology Laboratory Field Program Support Group (FPSG; code 616) was recently invited to participate in a cruise of opportunity aboard the R/V Kilo Moana, a 186 foot, dual-hulled research vessel operated by the University of Hawaii for the National Science Foundation and stationed in Honolulu, Hawaii. The cruise was funded by the Office of Naval Research in support of the Multiple University Research Initiative (MURI) project entitled 'Dynamic Camouflage in Benthic and Pelagic Cephalopods: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Crypsis Based on Color, Reflection, and Bioluminescence.' SSAI's Scott Freeman and Aimee Neeley represented the OEL on the cruise.Hawaii Cruise (MURI) 2012: A Report (PDF, 1.1 MB)
