Cages, Coring, and Crabbing, Oh My!

Welcome Fall 2011 Interns!!  Here's a quick recap of our first few days at the fishpond in photos...

Learning how to take cores to measure infauna.

Success - nice delineation!

Mapping out predator exclusion cages.

What did we get?  Using a sieve to collect infauna from the cores.

The road less traveled... really. 

Rinsing cores into the sieve to capture infauna

A formidable foe... and the object of our crabbing quest - Thalamita crenata

Measuring up.  Width, length, gender - just the facts.
