(Contributed Photo)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Schmidt Ocean Institute is a private non-profit operating foundation established to progress the understanding of the world&#8217;s ocean through technological advancement, intelligent observation, and open sharing of information. Join us as Wiener takes you aboard the institute&#8217;s 83-meter fully equipped research vessel R\/V Falkor, and explore the cutting-edge science conducted around the Pacific Region including the Hawaiian Islands, Australia, and our Mariana Trench. Falkor supports a wide range of scientific marine operations and research facilities, including autonomous and remotely operated robotics, hydrographic surveys, acoustic research, and telepresence-enabled research activities. <\/p>\n<p>This presentation will provide an overview of the Schmidt Ocean Institute\u2019s science program including upcoming work in the Mariana Trench and its latest accomplishments such as the new full ocean-depth hybrid remotely operated robotic vehicle that will come online in mid-2016.  <\/p>\n<p>Learn more about Wiener and her team of researchers and educators by visiting the institute&#8217;s website, http:\/\/www.schmidtocean.org. <\/p>\n<p>As with all APASEEM talks, on-topic questions from the audience are strongly encouraged.
