Ideas for Projects
• Underwater robotics project (very cool – possibly add a GoPro to the kit, explore caves/reefs and scare fish?!)
• Glider work – interactive, students can assist in piloting (other programs have used students too)
• Trips to Biostation and weather station• Reef survey (before/after a storm??)

• Fish of Bermuda• The Bermuda time series?• Fuel from algae• Wave power project – data available from BWS –
maybe make a working CETO model using buoys and bike pumps?
• Weather forecasting for storms – when one comes• Balloon launch?• Tide gauge – or tidal patterns?• Homemade wind speed gauges?

• Wind turbines – using small motors as generators perhaps – or possibly building a larger one that drives a car alternator? Carbon fibre??
• Recording weather data (data loggers and spreadsheets)
• Recording the angle of the Sun (for our solar arrays)• Projects on hurricanes, el nino, thermohaline
circulation, gulf stream, convection, lightning etc…..

• Plastics in the ocean – Blue Halo? – sampling after a storm?
• Fish stocks (local and global?) and fish pots• Greaseballs on beaches• Cathodic corrosion• Biofouling and anti-fouling paints
