Grace Follmar: Week 6 Recap

This week we collected the last batch of zooplankton samples from our mesocosms. We’ve almost finished all of our identifications and by next week, we’ll have three weeks worth of data! Time has gone so fast and I’m proud of us for learning how to ID zooplankton and push through when things didn’t go as planned. To conclude week 6, we took a trip to the Dunes for a beach day and it was so fun. We got in the water even though it was very cold, and just hung out, enjoying the beautiful weather. Next week I’m looking forward to pond sampling and seeing what organisms we find!
