Spent the morning at @fieldmuseum with 16 incredible AP Environmental Science students from North Side Prep. Our Collections Club members jumped right into the Bryophyte Collections Curation Blitz—helping preserve, curate, and rehouse historical moss specimens for long-term scientific research.

✨🐠 Announcing new Zooniverse project - Marine Lens: Florida Keys! The Marine Lens team has captured thousands of underwater videos to protect vulnerable species and ecosystems, and now they need your help to sort through it! Find this and similar projects at www.zooniverse.org/projects
A circular logo for "Marine Lens Florida Keys" featuring a colorful, stylized illustration of ocean life. The design includes a Mutton Snapper, a Green Moray eel, a spiny lobster, a Queen Conch shell, and an Elkhorn coral, all arranged in a dynamic swirl.Many important fish species gather in large groups to reproduce at predictable locations and times. This predictability makes them extra vulnerable to fishing pressure.

Acting like underwater oases, solution holes provide shelter and food for many marine animals, in an otherwise flat, open seascape.

These cameras enable observation of marine species without disturbing them. Especially, rare behaviors, nocturnal or shy animals that divers might miss.

Help researchers analyze footage collected by underwater cameras. By identifying species and behaviors, you’ll be contributing to meaningful science! The ocean’s full of secrets – just when you think you’ve seen it all…boom, something new!
