The 3 month experiment on the north shore of St. Thomas approaches completion. As usual, the field team kicked butt diving to recover instruments on and in between rocks, cliffs, crevices, nooks and crannies. Having pulled instruments from the coastal ocean of many places, I cannot get over how different this Caribbean bio-fouling looks. None of this is rust! As an added bonus, how fun to run into old friends and students. Shout out to Dr. Greg Guannel, Director of Caribbean Green Technology Center at UVI (Go Beavs!) and Drew Davey, PhD student at SIO (Go Hawks!)
