The last students of the fall field season have arrived! For the next two days grade 11 and 12 Marine Biology students from Harbour View High School, Saint John, NB will get a chance to work first hand with the organisms they have been learning about. Today the students have classified invertebrates (watch out for the squirting scallop!), looked at plankton under the microscope, collected samples while on our research vessel, the Fundy Spray (brrrr its cold out there!) and experimented with sea stars and urchins. Looking forward to hitting the beach tomorrow!
