Fieldwork can be unpredictable sometimes! Several members of the Kaufman-Deyle lab recently got caught in Tropical Storm Sara as it passed through Belize and other Central American countries earlier this month! Our students were in Belize for BU’s famous Marine Semester (BU Marine Program, a.k.a. BUMP), through which they learn about marine systems and related research techniques in classroom and field settings.<\/p>\n

Our amazing PhD Candidate, Fabio Buitrago, is currently in Roat\u00e1n, Honduras, photographing the beautiful marine biodiversity there to create audiovisual materials for education! Fabio is studying the functioning of trophic system in the Mesoamerican Reef. He spends 6 months per year registering all the organisms present at different depths, in different locations including Belize and Honduras.<\/p>\n

Besides Fabio, who is human, the two species shown below are a Blue Parrot Fish (Scarus coeruleus<\/em>) and a Hawksbill Turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata<\/em>)!<\/p>\n
