Video Title:

Ballast Water Sampling Time Lapse

Description:

Smithsonian marine biologists Kim Holzer and Jenny Carney sample ballast water from a bulk cargo ship in Virginia. Large ships take on ballast water to remain stable during their voyages, but in the process they can inadvertently ferry invasive species as well.
