Memes – Cara Manning's Gas Biogeochemistry Lab at UConn

Memes and More!

Here are some memes and videos that I have made!
Some classes that I teach have an optional extra credit assignment of creating a meme related to the course content. 🙂

That feeling when you deploy your first sensors for the first time!

We had a successful deployment of our gas sensors at two sites in the Niantic River in August and we are planning to redeploy them soon, prior to an eelgrass transplanting experiment!#IWantYouBack pic.twitter.com/IOs50n0Uny

Anagha, Cara and Sławek deployed gas sensors and a conductivity/temperature/depth logger in the Niantic River on Aug 5. We hope the sensors enjoy their stay in the eelgrass bed!

My vial of Baffin Bay Bottom Water recently announced it wants to become an influencer.

Here it is filming a sponsored post with Vitamin B12. "Hey surface waters! Take vitamin B12 for a productivity boost!"*

Baffin Bay Bottom Water is looking for a Valentine!

Interests: remineralization of locally-produced organic matter and self-discovery (learning more about its unique chemical composition)

If you have a match, let me know! (They must be open to dating a more mature water mass!) pic.twitter.com/tJueET4jfT
