This summer, we’re deepening our understanding of Chesapeake Bay through the eyes and stories of our faculty and students at the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science. Our weekly YouTube video series called “Discovering the Chesapeake” features our scientists and the research that sets them apart. We post a new video every Monday at noon.
On July 10, Allen Place, a biochemist with the Institute of Marine and Environmental Technology, takes us behind the scenes of his efforts to understand the treasures of the Chesapeake, including turtles and blue crabs, and introduces us to a lesser-known Bay visitor that reminds him of “Alien.”
