Eelgrass 2021

Our 2021 summer expeditions focused on detecting subtleties along the shallow Eastern edge. Because eelgrass meadows can counter climate change through photosynthesis and storage of carbon we collected footage for a documentary about eelgrass’s value and role in the ecosystem, as suggested by a student.
