The Ocean 180 video challenge is to create a video abstract, which is a short (180 second) piece summarizing the results of a recently-published, peer-reviewed study on any ocean-science related topic. Justin Ridge entered and chose a recent GRL paper on sea-level anomalies and beach erosion as the topic. Who better to star in the video than the author of the paper, Ethan Theuerkauf? The target audience is middle school students. Justin did a great job, but unfortunately didn’t progress to the next round. Take a look at his video, then watch the Ocean 180 Video Challenge finalists. Justin’s going to try again next year and focus on a different topic, possibly some of his work on oyster reefs.
