Its week 8 and the summer has been great! This week has been all about posters and trying to fit every piece of information I want to convey in a concise and clear manner in the space I have. To do so I’ve spent a lot of time in R and Photoshop, thinking (maybe too much) about statistical tests and models. It’s definitely helped my proficiency with coding and visual representation of my data! I have also; sadly, have begun taking down my sea tables and returning my adult chitons back to where I collected them. While the chiton exodus is sad for me, I get to enjoy the intertidal here a couple of last times. Which means (back by popular demand), more pictures of sculpins out of water (Figure 1)! Outside of making final poster edits and raising chitons, I have been able to enjoy my now limited time in Coos Bay. This weekend we went out to Hall Lake to enjoy the warmer weather inland. While we didn’t see a whole lot of aquatic invertebrates, the scenery was quite beautiful and dynamic. Right next to the lake was a sand dune with an incline close (or at least felt like it was) to 60 degrees, once you reached the top you could see ocean, sand dunes, and forest all in one shot (Figure 2).
