The first week of marine ecology was spent doing a lot of research "practice" and crunching a lot of data. At each site we did laid measuring tape across the intertidal and then randomly placed PVC squares with wire grids over the line. Everything in the grid had to be identified, counted (or extrapolated, barnacles can take a while to count), and recorded to give us a better idea of what lived in each zone and so that we were able to calculated species richness and abundance for the sites. We did LOADS of these. In short, we hated it. Which is probably why I can not find any pictures..
