					<description><![CDATA[One day in the office at the Geophysical Institute in Bergen last Friday, and for the first time in a long time I am writing a little bit of oceanography and tank experiments again: My colleague Stefanie Semper and I published a SERC &#8220;Teach the Earth&#8221; activity on &#8220;ocean currents and overflows&#8221;! This activity is [&#8230;]

And 2/3rds of the respondents said they wanted more kitchen oceanography! So obviously my strategy was to do a photo shooting [&#8230;]
