Dear Science Enthusiast,


University of Texas at Austin Webcast Entitled "Brave New Ocean."

A webcast presentation given by Professor Jeremy Jackson, William E. and
Mary B. Ritter Professor and Director of the Geosciences Research Division
at Scripps Institution of Oceanography will be March 3, 2006 at 7pm. Dr.
Jeremy Jackson is one of the most prominent marine ecologists in the world
and he has a message to get out about the world's oceans - it documents
declines in coral reefs, decreasing numbers of large marine fish, and losses
of coastal and marine ecosystems.  More than just an academic researcher,
Dr. Jackson has actively searched for innovative ways to reach the public,
applying his skills as a communicator with his scientific knowledge to
inspire action.  Dr. Jackson desires to reach a broader audience and affect
change into the future with tomorrow's generation on this topic of interest.

View a FREE web broadcast of the lecture live Friday, March 3, 2006 at 7 pm
CST. During the live webcast, you can submit questions to Dr. Jackson and he
will answer as many as he can for the live and webcast audiences.
