Rui Seabra, co-leader of the CCTBON research project, is implementing a network to monitor rocky shore temperatures and biodiversity at over 400 sites around the entire Atlantic. He will train us how to install data loggers while being briefly in Scotland, and we'll then become part of this Atlantic wide network.
We will learn more about the CCTBON project, explore the local rocky shore marine life and help Rui with data logger installation.
