Working at Sea

It's been a long day of sampling and experiments, so here's some pictures of the work done on research vessels.

Kristine helping to deploy the CTD rosette, so we can collect water samples.  
Rachel sampling for Synechococcus, a small unicellular algae.

I'm sampling Trichodesmium, a colonial nitrogen fixing algae.

Nick cleaning a coring tube, used to collect sediment samples from the seafloor.
Tish, our chief scientist, collecting seawater samples for chemical analysis.


Brandon sampling zooplankton collected in the MOCNESS.
