July 8, 2020 5:00pm to 5:30pm iCal Google Calendar

Beneath the sometimes hard-to-predict tides of Chesapeake Bay are remarkably dynamic motions. We will explore this classic estuary and the forces that drive it.

“Bay 101 – Science of the Chesapeake for Non-Scientists” is a series of five seminars hosted by Horn Point Laboratory faculty to shed light into the mysteries of the Bay, by highlighting Horn Point Laboratory programs working to improve the health of the Bay and its aquatic life. 

While the Horn Point Laboratory is closed to the public, we will share this educational series virtually starting Wednesday, July 8 - August 5 at 5:00 pm.  The 30 minute programs will each cover a specific topic and questions and participation is encouraged. 

Registration is required for these FREE programs. Register HERE or contact Carin Starr at cstarr@umces.edu.

The Chesapeake Bay and its rivers are the lifeblood of the Eastern Shore, defining the region like no other water body in the world. While many easily recognize the natural beauty Bay country offers, the Horn Point Laboratory is offering “Bay 101 – Science of the Chesapeake for Non-Scientists” designed to make the science of the Chesapeake Bay as accessible as its beauty.
