Throughout the 2006-2007 school year, students in Mrs. O'Brien's class, together with Mrs. O'Brien and Mr. Tanenbaum designed and built a drifter buoy.
A
 drifter buoy is an instrument
that floats around in the open sea. It usually follows currents in the
open sea. Our drifter will be able to report its position and the
temperature of the water, along with the humidity. It will make
reports to satellites every 90 seconds from wherever it is in the world.Our buoy will be released by Mr. Tanenbaum from a ship run by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. His ship, the MILLER FREEMAN, will be traveling off the coast of Alaska. Click the links above to find out more about our project.
