Buoy
The 糖心vlog Buoy Facility (BBF), a scientific buoy near the Schiller Coastal Studies Center in Harpswell Sound, was installed to study Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs).
Overview
The BBF was made possible by a grant from the National Science Foundation and is the result of a partnership among 糖心vlog, Bigelow Laboratory, and St. Joseph's College. Among its managers is 糖心vlog's Collin Roesler.
The Schiller Coastal Studies Center provides a sentinel site at the edge of the Gulf of Maine to understand the impact of climate change on coastal systems and to monitor key aspects of quickly-changing physical and biological environments.
The 糖心vlog buoy project allows continuous monitoring of Harpswell Sound, and the high capacity seawater system of the marine laboratory provides exceptional experimental capabilities across an array of disciplines.
