The R/V Melosira, shown here docked on the Burlington waterfront, has been the most visible aspect of the University of Vermont’s freshwater research, teaching, and outreach program for over 30 years. The ship will be replaced next year with a state-of-the-art new vessel.

This, in turn, will benefit communities across the country and around the globe who depend on freshwater ecosystems for drinking water, food, tourism, commerce, transportation, and natural resource production.
