Rui Seabra, co-leader of the CCTBON research project, is installing data
loggers at locations around the entire Atlantic and will briefly be in
Scotland. He is implementing a network to monitor rocky shore
temperatures and biodiversity at over 400 sites and is a co-founder of
ElectricBlue - a tech co-op developing instruments for environmental
monitoring and bio-logging.
We will learn more about the CCTBON project, explore the local rocky
shore marine life and help Rui with data logger installation.
