Angelina Leal, a third-year Santa Rosa Junior College biology major, gained invaluable experience in environmental research while studying eelgrass wasting disease with mentor Dr. Amy Briggs as part of the SRJC-BML Internship Program.
Arden Hiatt just finished their second year at SRJC and is transferring into UCSC this fall, 2024. Arden is primarily interested in marine ecology and ornithology and spent last summer helping my mentor, PhD student Claire Murphy, with her research on beach community ecology.
Invisible in the clear afternoon sky, the moon tugged the tidal channel’s brackish waters towards the Pacific Ocean. It drew them out slowly, languidly, the water’s surface eddying and rippling in the sunlight.
This summer, I had the incredible opportunity to work with Emma Deen, a junior specialist in the Stachowitz lab at the Bodega Marine Laboratory, where I delved into the fascinating world of marine science and research.
Through the EVE Scholars Program, UC Davis undergraduates engage in hands-on independent research that advances marine science while fostering personal and academic growth at the Bodega Marine Laboratory.
Congratulations to Dr. Alyssa Griffin for recently receiving a grant from the NSF Chemical Oceanography program: Assessing the role of seagrass biogeochemistry and sedimentary alkalinity production in coastal carbon cycling and marine carbon dioxide removal strategies.
