DISL Graduate students Carly Steeves, Nate Geraldi, Brad
Furman, Dale Booth and Allison Rellinger visted Hüso
Biological Station along the Baltic Sea this fall for two
weeks of field studies. The Baltic coastal ecosystem is
dominated by rocky intertidal, marsh and submerged aquatic
vegetation. “This field course is an excellent opportunity
to compare our own ecosystem in Mobile Bay to the habitats
of the Baltic Sea,” says Dr. Ken Heck, who led the course.
Last year the DISL hosted students from Finland to Dauphin
Island. |
