Excursions and Experiences

Citizen Scientist Marine Cruise with Huntsman Marine

Join Huntsman educators on this unique 3.5-hour experience modeled closely on our education programming success aboard the Huntsman research vessel Fundy Spray. During this experience, you will help collect live animal samples and oceanography data that are used to assess local environmental changes. Our Huntsman educators will need your help setting the plankton nets to catch microscopic plants and animals that form the base of most marine food chains. We will lower the invertebrate drag to bring animals from the seafloor community to the surface to have a deeper understanding of the Bay of Fundy. Once we return to the Huntsman, the experience will continue in the teaching lab, where you will have the opportunity to use microscopes and take a closer look at the marine life living in the Bay of Fundy.
