Google honored María de los Ángeles Alvariño González with a Doodle on Sunday, the 105th birthday of the marine research biologist "widely regarded as one of the most important Spanish scientists of all time," Google said.
Alvariño discovered 22 new species of zooplankton and published more than 100 scientific papers, according to Google and biographies of the scientist.
The Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO) appointed her as a marine biologist in 1952, even though only men were accepted at the institute at the time, because of her impressive work at university, Google said.
