The National Geographic website has posted a series of blogs by UMaine marine scientist Rhian Waller, who is on an expedition in the fjords around Chile to study deep-sea corals. Waller received earlier this year a $30,064 National Geographic grant to establish three long-term monitoring sites in Chile where she will monitor and take samples of deep-sea corals to study their reproductive ecology.
