We used\u00a0quad-rats to isolate certain areas in which we counted worm holes and measured the width of fecal castings (poop) with a special tool called a caliper. Our dinner guest the night before, Professor Rachel Merz, stopped by to give us a lesson on Lugworm biology. We thought it was hard to stay focused in the strong winds and low temperatures that came upon us. After that we headed back to the dorm for a proper breakfast that satisfied our stomachs. We also played games and rested from the long morning that we had. After lunch we celebrated Tyra&#8217;s 15th Birthday with cake and ice cream, which of course was fun! Tim taught us how to make graphs of the data that we collected. We met with Alicia again at the Friday Harbor Labs to illustrate details and differences in our marine specimens. Raena Parsons and Sean Robertson joined us for dinner where they talked about their careers with National and State Parks.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0061.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-289\" alt=\"DSC_0061\" src=\"http:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0061-300x199.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0061-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0061-1024x680.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0055.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-287\" alt=\"DSC_0055\" src=\"http:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0055-300x199.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0055-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0055-1024x680.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_00541.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-286\" alt=\"DSC_0054\" src=\"http:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_00541-300x199.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_00541-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_00541-1024x680.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0060.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-278\" alt=\"DSC_0060\" src=\"http:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0060-300x199.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0060-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_0060-1024x680.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-290\" style=\"font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;\" alt=\"DSC_0062\" src=\"http:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_00621-300x199.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_00621-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/DSC_00621-1024x680.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Will, Saymirah, and Lisa \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We began with an early start when we woke at 5:30 AM to travel to False Bay where we began our Lugworm Population Survey and Fecal Casting Measurements.
