Evening at Skidaway — The Ocean’s Invisible Engine: How Tiny Organisms Power our Ocean Ecosystems

March 24 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Two people, wearing safety gear, work with scientific equipment on a ship’s deck at sea. The image promotes an event titled Evening at Skidaway about ocean ecosystems, presented by Dr. Adam Greer.

They’re invisible to the naked eye, but zooplankton play a pivotal role in shaping marine ecosystems and coastal economies. What determines where these tiny organisms live? How do scientists study them? And what do they actually look like? Join us for a live Q&A with Dr. Adam Greer, an associate professor in UGA’s Department of Marine Sciences and a faculty member at the Skidaway Institute of Oceanography, as he takes us into the world of the ocean’s smallest animals.
