A few weeks ago our lab team learned how to use seine net as a tool to record different fish spices. We teamed up with the Marine Science Center and used the seine net in Ponce Inlet. It was very surprising to me at how many varieties of spices of fish we caught and recorded.It was furthermore interesting to see the variation of spices due to location. We did three different seines one in a area of water away from the main current almost in a little cove which is a C shape. In this area we caught small to medium fish including white mullet and even a spotted puffer fish.
The second seine was in a pond connected to the cove where it experiences high and low tide. We seined on low tide and caught mainly smaller fish the size of minos.

Nice post, Shelby. I'd like to know a bit more about your project. You are researching biofuels. Which plants are currently being used for producing biofuels and out of those, which produce the most fuel based on a weight to volume ratio?
ReplyDeleteHaha--I see I've already asked you this question. So let's ask another...what are the optimal locations/conditions for growing biofuels? Does Florida produce any? if so--where and how much is produced?
