10 days, 10 nights: Day 8

The next day, Dr. Steve Pennings from the University of Houston gave us a tour of the ongoing LTER projects on Sapelo Island. The projects investigate a wide range of topics, including the zonation of marsh plants and how interactions between plants and animals can govern marsh structure.
We traveled around the island piled into the back of a flatbed truck. Not too bad, as long as it wasn't raining!
