Seasons in the Sea: Participatory Science Event!
Help the NZ Marine Studies Centre with their participatory science project, tracking the seasonal changes of plankton in the Otago Harbour.
Plankton are a wide and varied group of organisms that play vital roles in our marine ecosystem. Plankton occurrence and abundance is directly linked with their surrounding environmental conditions. As the climate is changing, it's more important than ever to monitor plankton for seasonal cycles.
Suitable for ages 9+.
Participants under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a ticketed adult.
You cannot drop off your kids and leave.
Participants must wear close-toed shoes (crocs are not close-toed shoes).
