Scientists need our help! Start by learning about some of the community/citizen science projects The Maritime Aquarium is partnered with, as well as take some real data. We will go outside (weather permitting) to take a plankton and water sample from the dock, use microscopes to observe the plankton and record our observations. Then, by observing animals throughout the aquarium, we can brainstorm how we would study them in their natural habitat with our own community/citizen science project! This program will help complete the requirements for the Think Like a Citizen Scientist Journey.
