Eighth grade classes in marine science meet every other day for the entire year. The eighth grade course focuses on the physical aspects of marine environments. Topics will include tides, waves, bathymetry, wetlands and climate change. We will also explore some more advanced topics of ecology and conservation such as trophic cascades, "Rise of the Slime" and "Tragedy of the Commons".
