| Southampton Graduate Campus is one of the few undergraduate institutions
with an on-campus Marine Station. The marine station is located on
Old Fort Pond in Shinnecock Bay, a short walk from the main campus.
From the facility, students and faculty have direct access to the
Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. The marine station is the site of five
laboratories and a fleet of boats including the R/V Paumanok, a 44-foot
ocean-going vessel used for coastal research, and the R/V Shinnecock,
a 35-foot platform craft used for sampling local bays and estuaries.
Smaller outboard craft are equipped with winches, davits and metering
wheels for sampling instruments such as oxygen analyzers, CTD-probes,
and trawls. The aquarium/wet laboratory allows maintenance of live
marine species throughout the year for classroom use. |
