Purpose 
Explore relations between turbidity, leaf photosynthetic activity and plant
growth
Information to be Derived 
Time series of turbidity at the top of the eelgrass canopy; plant morphometrics
Summary 
Turbidity at the top of the canopy and plant growth will be measured over 3
weeks in winter in Picnic Cove, Shaw Island and Shoal Bay, Lopez Island.
