Marine Laboratory
The lab is continuously supplied with seawater from Harpswell Sound, allowing researchers to maintain a diversity of marine life in up to thirty large tanks. Researchers using the lab are able to investigate whole organisms, single cells, or even single molecules.
A grant from the National Science Foundation enables us to build on our capability to control and monitor temperature, pH, and oxygen in real-time in these units. This allows for physiological research on warming, ocean acidification, and hypoxia, as well as keeping animals in optimal growth conditions.
Feel free to contact us to discuss how the lab and waterfront can support your research objectives.
Contact Jaret Reblin at jreblin@bowdoin.edu to inquire about use of the marine laboratory.
