Description
Sea Stars, Sea Lettuce and Beaked Barnacles…
What are those little critters found in cracks and crevices of coastal rocks and on the beach? And how is a citizen science project involving children and the public contributing to marine science?
In this episode we explore the seashore and hear the story of fascinating little sea creatures and the Marine Meter Squared project.
Ft. Sally Carson, Tamlyn Somerford, Zoe Psarouthakis and the participants of the Coastal Care Workshop
