As 2022 comes to a close, we've compiled a highlight reel of our year of ocean science and adventure.
We spent the year diving to greater depths in HOV Alvin, confronting the coral crisis with our unique blend of science and engineering, and elevating the ocean to center stage for the first time ever at the U.N. Climate Change Conference, COP27.

And that’s not all—our team has continued to collaborate on thousands of projects that push ocean science and exploration forward for the global good. Thank you for being a friend of the ocean! For more most-loved offerings from 2022, visit our best of 2022 page: whoi.edu/best-of-2022
