As part of our Introduction to Oceanography class this Spring 2011 semester at Norwich University, our group will be researching and presenting on plants and animals that live in an ecosystem called the 'Mesopelagic and Bathypelagic Open Ocean'.
We have three group members:
Nick Smart, Kyle Kickey, and Alex Chen
Each member of our group will be reporting on a different marine organism that lives in the mesopelagic or bathypelagic ecosystem zones of the open ocean. One will be a zooplankton, one a phytoplankton, one a marine invertebrate, and one a marine vertebrate.
As part of an integrated approach, we will be researching how our organisms interact with the other aspects of the ocean system (geological, physical, and chemical).
Hi! My name is Professor Harris. I am the teacher for this class. I will be checking in with the group from time to time. Hopefully you enjoy learning about this marine ecosystem and some of the organisms that live there as much as we do! If you have any questions, send them our way!
