Biology major Timara Vereen, alongside professor Craig Plante, has spent the past year investigating mudflats near Grice Marine Lab to determine the outsized impact the small eastern mud snail has on microorganisms in its ecosystem. 🐌 today.cofc.edu/2022/08/29/bio…

Join us this Friday at the Marine Lab! College of CharlestonSSM Grice Marine Lab @CofC

Have you visited our Grice Marine Lab? Located right on the Charleston Harbor, it’s home to our Marine Laboratory for undergraduate and graduate research and teaching. It’s also home to the best views in Charleston! Find out more at gricemarinelab.cofc.edu

Looks like it’s going to be another beautiful day at Grice Marine Lab! Mornings this week will be in the upper 40s F, but we’ll be close to 70 degrees F in the afternoons! Is it spring yet?! 🌱🐣 #HappyMonday 🌞 👋 🌊

Good luck, Jess! We’re rooting for you!

Good morning from Grice Cove! The sun is rising, birds are singing, and the air feels like spring here on Fort Johnson.

It’s a beautiful night here on Fort Johnson; the moon, Jupiter, & Venus are aligned and super bright in the sky! 💙🌖

🛢➕🌾🟰⁉️ Raven (2nd yr graduate student 🙌👩‍🔬) is studying the impact of oil spills on marsh grass, *Spartina alterniflora!* Raven's work could help inform restoration efforts & replanting after oil spills! 🫡🌾 Thanks, Raven!! #Ecotox #saltmarsh #WomeninSTEM CofC Biology

It’s a beautiful gray day here in the Grice Cove salt marsh! 🌾🐟🦐

Check out Ian Rolfe with his poster entitled, “Ecophysiological Adaptions of Abundant Mesophotic Macroalgae in the Main Hawaiian Islands: Shedding light on Macroalgal Photosynthesis” at the Gordon Research Conference on Mesophotic Coral Ecosystems in Ventura, California!

Kassidy Lange won the best Master’s poster award for, “Ecophysiological approach to assessing Symbiodinium in mesophotic octocorals Swiftia exserta and Muricea pendula to support laboratory-based proliferation,” at the Gordon Research Conference on Mesophotic Coral Ecosystems!

Congrats to nicole who successfully defended her thesis, “Using unmanned aerial systems (UAS) to understand the habitat use and distribution patterns of common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) in the Cooper River and surrounding waters of Charleston, SC!” 🐬🐬🐬

It was great to have you Sebastian van Delden & the @CofCSSM Board of Advocates — come visit us again soon!

Why is our Marine Biology program one of the best in the country? When a Great White Shark washes up on shore all the way up in Myrtle Beach, it is brought down here to our Fort Johnson campus with DNR for analysis. Great experience for our students. 🦈 College of Charleston Grice Marine Lab
