Théthys investigation in the Mediterranean Sea

Group of students (Lycée Monteil à Rodez, France)

Event: 2014 Ocean Surface Topography Science Team Meeting

Session: OSTST Closing Plenary Session

Presentation type: Keynote/invited

Théthys is the third satellite driven buoy that has been realized by the students of the scientific workshop of our High school. Thanks to the information our buoy provided us, through the CNES ARGONAUTICA educational project, we got information on the Ligure current and we can demonstrate that a drifting object released in Marseille cannot get to Imperia in Italy.
In addition of his scientific side, this Project has a cultural side including mythology.
