With help from Adam and Emma, we are moving toward the best pitches for our conservation hopes. we are looking forward to presenting our ideas to all of you after our revisions and research. We had two sessions of project time today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"806\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0064-806x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8284\" srcset=\"https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0064-806x1024.jpeg 806w, https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0064-504x640.jpeg 504w, https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0064-768x975.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0064-1210x1536.jpeg 1210w, https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0064-236x300.jpeg 236w, https:\/\/salishseasciences.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/IMG_0064.jpeg 1242w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 806px) 100vw, 806px\" \/><figcaption>PC: Susanna- Project Work Time<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At 1:00, we went to see scientific study presentations from UW undergrad students. We learned about many cool things, ranging from sea star larvae to eelgrass disease. The presentations were short, but we managed to keep captivated due to the energy the students exerted while presenting. They had been working on their studies for several weeks and it was evident that they had put in much work to make their research matter. Many thanks to Friday Harbor Labs for providing us with this excellent learning opportunity!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tonight we will have spinach pie with Dr. Ken Sebens who focuses his studies on benthic and coral reef ecology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blog by: Greta, Trevor, Pax, and Susanna Today we woke up at 7:30 am and were greeted by a nice fog cover over the island.
