This map was updated in the fall of 1999 reflecting the changes made and using the new, more modern base map used in the new SeaBase. There are six modules and each one is devoted to a specific topic. Each exhibit is identified by level. This 24 foot long tank displays how waves form and how those waves affect the ocean floor and the beach. Every half hour, divers either enter or exit the main tank through this chamber.
Divers demonstrate the latest in wetsuit and air tank technology.
An assistant explains the process to us and allows us to ask any questions we may have. Other free-standing tanks explain camouflage, symbiotic relationships, and bioluminescence SeaBase. What on Earth - a map that marks undersea volcanoes, faults, the Ring of Fire, etc. with lights that illuminate when the corresponding button is pressed. Anatomy of the Sea - this large tube shows what the ocean is composed of. Allows viewing of the main tank.
