This past month has been a meaningful one, as we celebrated both Pride and our oceans. 🌈🌊

Although these dedicated months are concluding, the values they represent remain with us throughout the year. Sound Science is committed to advocating for a more inclusive and equitable future for our LGBTQ+ community and a more sustainable future for our marine environments.

Together, let's continue to amplify our voices, raise awareness, and take meaningful steps to protect the beauty and diversity of our oceans while fostering love, unity, and respect. 💙

Our very own director, Dr. Michelle Fournet (@mbellalady), recently became a National Geographic Explorer (@insidenatgeo)! 💛 This title comes with funding that will help Sound Science dive deeper into our research on individual variation in humpback whale vocalizations. 🐋

We are so proud of our incredibly talented, intelligent, passionate leader! Stay tuned as we move forward with this, and other, projects!

We may have missed World Whale Day this past Sunday, but honestly, we don't mind celebrating whales every day!

We're looking forward to being back out on the water in a few months to deploy hydrophones and listen to humpbacks in Southeast Alaska. But until then, we'll just stay a bit envious of their time in the warm Hawaiian waters 🌊

Happy winter solstice! Near our field site in Alaska, the shortest day of the year has a little over 6 hours of daylight. But that's nothing compared to our friends up in Barrow, where the sun sets in November and rises in January 😮
