Analysis of “A Forest Under The Sea”- Studying Giant Kelp’s Benefits to Ecosystems, and Evaluating Kelp Restoration
I wrote a research paper on how Giant Kelp needs to be restored due to the rising ocean temperatures. There are two methods that I specifically focused on and learned about which are "Super Kelp" and "Green Gravel." Giant Kelp is critical to our ecosystem and marine life specific...
