B5034: Symbiosis: a love story between corals and dinoflagellates in Splash Spring 2016 (Apr. 09 - 10, 2016)
Around the world, coral reefs are experiencing severe environmental stress and turning white, a.k.a "bleaching." What's going on during bleaching? What role do dinoflagellates (microscopic algae) play? And how can we test it? Students will explore the science of symbiosis and current research through hands-on demonstrations and light microscopy with sea anemones.
