As the librarian for the Miller Library at Hopkins Marine Station, I was offered the opportunity to help with a research project on the Palmyra Atoll. This is a ring of islands surrounding a lagoon located about 1,000 miles south of Hawaii, just north of the equator. There are less than 5 square miles of land, and the highest elevation is 6 feet. It averages about 175 inches of rain a year, and there is no rainy season.

A New Blog
If you are looking for something to read until my Palmyra blog starts up again, check out my Baja Librarian blog. Back in April I participated on a research trip diving off the Pacific side of the Baja peninsula. The link to this blog can be found in the list of my other blogs to the right of this blog entry.
