11th LAGOON DRIFT EXPERIMENT IS UNDERWAY...
We had fun prepping for our spring Lagoon Drift citizen science experiment, including decorating drift cards and sharing the study with Palm Beach Day Academy 6th graders and 2nd graders from Glades Academy and The Conservatory School at Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens' Earth Day event!
The eco-friendly purple drift cards were deployed on April 25th, and we love seeing the reports roll in! Every reported card helps us better understand pollutant motion in our waters. Please continue to be on the lookout, and stay tuned for details of our next experiment in the fall.
