It's interesting to see how your team is dealing with difficult conditions to find and isolate fungi and algae and bacteria. And to see some of the methods used to collect the critters. Glad I can't smell in there tho, since Rachael says its a stinky butt smell, lol!

This is so cool Lucy. My science class is learning about aquatic ecosystems now and the kids love the exceptions to the rule- not photosynthetic producers, not consumers. Great to hear about these different world ecosystems that help us understand our everyday ecosystems better. I didn't believe about the mega wind until I saw the whole shelter rattling!
