Soil cores & plant composition in the mobile-tensaw delta

4/14/2023

A bittersweet final sampling for Getty to finish up her MS thesis.  We collected plant community composition and soil cores from 48 plot pairs that either were disturbed or not disturbed last year at this time.  We have been monitoring plant community recovery after this disturbance in our delta plots at Port Jacinto.  It was a fun and wet day!

Emily, Darrien, & Chelsea all presented their research at the South Alabama Graduate Research Symposium today. Great job all!!  Darrien presented work on introductory biology instructor usage and perceived benefits of ideaological awareness in the biology classroom; Emily presented work exploring the benefits of mycorrhizal fungi to salinity & drought tolerance in coastal grasses; and Chelsea presented work on how ghost crab burrowing density and size is impacted by mechanical disturbance and nutrient addition.  Getty was supposed to present work on delta plant community response to disturbance however was knocked out by covid.

Getty, Emily, Jeremiah, and former UG Kaitlyn were presenting talks and posters at the Bays & Bayous symposium in Mobile this week.  It was a great way to showcase some of the awesome work in coastal dunes, deltas, and freshwater streams occurring within the group! It was our first time at this symposium, what a fun conference bringing together scientists, governmental agencies, non-profits, and stakeholders to talk about pressing issues in the northern gulf coast.
