A belated #fieldworkfriday post... Conducting our annual salt marsh monitoring transects to track changes in plant community abundance and distribution. Completed all 4 transects ahead of the pending rain and the change in seasons! #fieldwork #batescolleg

Had a chance to paddle the Sprague River through the marsh - good to get a fresh perspective on the natural beauty of BMMCA! #batescollege #batesmorsemountainconservationarea
