Purpose
|
Try to determine if tunicates differ in DNA depending on what they grow on. Try
to determine is tunicates affect eelgrass growth and shoot density.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
Samples and chemical analysis;
Tunicate samples taken for DNA analysis and shoot density and growth.
|
|
|
Summary
|
12 samples preserved: 6 from eelgrass and 6 from hard man-made substrate. Photos
taken with drop camera system. 26 samples retrieved for eelgrass shoot density
and growth from 2 sites.
