Dol-MICROBE Project
I am currently working with a team of researchers from Skidaway Institute of Oceanography on the NSF-funded project Dol-MICROBE. The overall goal of the project is to understand the ecological function of doliolids-- a type of pelagic tunicate-- on the continental shelf of the South Atlantic Bight and their influence on microbial processes. Read more about the Dol-MICROBE project here, and check out our blog, The Doliolid Digest! |

GSU Oyster Restoration In spring 2019, Georgia Southern Biology students headed to Bennetts Point, SC to help with an oyster reef restoration project as part of the SCORE (SC Oyster Recycling and Enhancement) program. We loaded ~350 bags (10,000 lbs) of recycled oyster shell onto a boat to transport to the restoration site. At the restoration site, we offloaded the bags onto the shoreline at low tide and transplanted some marsh grass behind the reef. It was a bit of a cold and windy day, but we had a great time for a good cause. Check out these photos of our trip! |
