The National Ocean Sciences Bowl is pleased to release the inaugural issue of The Ocean Gyre, NOSB’s bi-annual newsletter!
This month, four NOSB teams packed up their bags, boarded planes and travelled to faraway destinations to further their understanding of ocean science. These adventures were prizes earned by their exemplary performance earlier this year at the 2011 NOSB Finals Competition in Galveston, Texas.
Twenty-four high schools from around the United States competed in this year’s NOSB Finals Competition. The NOSB is an ocean science education program of the Consortium for Ocean Leadership based in Washington, DC.
[ April 28, 2011 to May 1, 2011. ] The 14th Annual National Ocean Sciences Bowl Finals Competition will be held in Galveston, Texas from April 28 – May 1, 2011.
Each year, approximately 2,000 students from over 300 high schools participate at one of 25 regional NOSB competitions.
