During the 2016 and 2017 summer seasons, five experimental sugar kelp stations were established, running along east-west and north-south transects moving away from the mouth of the Saco River. Stations … Continue reading Assessment of Indicator Bacteria within the Surface Biofilm of Sugar Kelp (Saccharina Latissima) Along a Seaward Gradient in from the Mouth of the Saco River
