Meet the Mesozooplankton Team

Mesozooplankton are tiny marine animals. The mesozooplankton team will study these using the MOCNESS and CalVET plankton nets to collect the animals. They’ll be recording the species that they see, counting the individuals, and weighing them to estimate how many of these animals are in the water.

Coming soon...
