Despite the ocean taking up the majority of our planet’s surface, we know very little about the undersea environment. Researchers and scientists are working really hard to preserve the environment and understand the rest of the globe. But on a typical Sri Lankan workday, while marine biologist Asha de Vos was out in the open sea, the crew noticed something odd in the water. When they initially arrived, they had no idea what they had run into, but once they had landed, they couldn’t believe what they would discover once they were back at work. Let’s plunge in and learn Sri Lanka’s undersea secret.

The First and Only One with a PhD
Asha de Vos wasn’t your typical marine biology graduate. She had been successful in earning a PhD in the area. If that wasn’t amazing enough for you, she is also the first and only Sri Lankan to have ever received a PhD in this area. It is evident that she has a strong connection to her own country, and for many years she has decided to concentrate her studies on researching and conserving Sri Lanka and the northern Indian Ocean.
