Welcome to the Outer Banks/Deepwater Horizon Team’s website. The Undergraduate Research Experience in Ocean, Marine and Polar Science program objective is to promote the professional development of minority undergraduate students through their participation in research. This team had the task of establishing a baseline on a range of data correlating to water composition along the Outer Banks of North Carolina from Ocracoke Inlet to Corolla with concentrated sampling from Ocracoke Inlet to Cape Hatteras.
