Expert Update :)

Hey there everyone!

If you look back a couple of posts, you'll see our announcement about our guest experts for this years' camps, and we just wanted to give you all a little update.  We are excited to announce that our friend Stephanie, the lobster expert, has gotten an amazing opportunity to study snow crabs off the coast of Labrador in July. 

A snow crab- they can be between 9.5 and 15cm wide!

Sadly, this means that she will be unable to come to our first 2 camps, but don't dispair, we have an equally awesome seaweed expert named Lauren coming instead!  Lauren studies the effects of eutrophication (a process where water bodies receive excess nutrients that stimulate excessive plant growth) and climate warming on rockweed.



We would like to extend the warmest welcome to Lauren and we look forward to working with her this summer! :)

Peace, Love, and Seaweed!
