New Knowledge

Day 30. Mussel Check at 1944

Visual tank inspections look ok-ish for airflow and water clarity; water is very cloudy in comparison to previous checks. Mussels were still aggregated in their respective bags/ coolers. You can smell the mussels when you enter the cold room, this temperature increase may get us to 50% mortality.

Old Tricks

• I had some personal obligations to knock out today, so my main productive activity was making the maps of the contaminant indices and IBRs for the supplement of the biomarker paper.
