We regularly test water conditions in Sandy Hook Bay.

	Waiting for our chemical tests to be processed gave us time to do some hook-and-line collecting. Tagged to study its migration, and ready for release, this sea robin gets a good-luck kiss good-bye!.
	"Shooting" the sun with a sextant determines our latitude at around 40-North. (Left) A rich sample of plankton is taken for study back in the classroom.
(Above) In the spring, millions of mud snail eggs cover everything that isn't moving on the bay bottom. Everything, it seems, but the red-beard sponge. Does it have some secret weapon to keep the snails at bay???
