*If you are curious about the picture, that is me holding a fish I caught on 
the Oregon II.  During the spring and summer of 2002, I took two 
seperate journeys aboard the Oregon II as a Teacher At Sea for the 
National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administrations (NOAA).  My 
job was to work side by side with the scientists and crew of the vessel to 
learn about the work they do.

My first trip focused on coral reef fish.  We went all through the Gulf of 
Mexico dropping and pulling back up 500 pound camera arrays.  These 
cameras recorded the fish on the reefs.  Each year they drop the 
cameras in the same location to track fish populations and reef damage 
in the deep parts of the Gulf of Mexico.

The second trip focused more on shallow water fish.  We would trawl 
many times a day to count fish. Again we followed a pattern from 
previous years and would catch many, many fish.  Our job was to then 
identify and count the fish.  We also had to determine if they were boy 
fish or girl fish.  They actually look quite simliar in most species, so that 
was challenging.
