2023 International SeaPerch Challenge
Explore the ocean with us! Ocean explorers use innovative technologies to fill gaps in our basic understanding of how we impact the ocean and how the ocean impacts us. This knowledge helps us to protect ocean health, sustainably manage our marine resources, accelerate our national economy, better understand our changing environment, and enhance appreciation of the importance of the ocean in our everyday lives.The 2023 International SeaPerch Challenge is inspired by these technologies. Join us on May 13, 2023. We are pleased to announce an exciting partnership with NOAA Ocean Exploration and the Ocean Exploration Cooperative Institute (OECI) for the 2023 season theme of ocean exploration.
