We met at the Pilot Bay wharf and our role was to wrap netting around concrete blocks while the seaweed was collected from Motuotau Island (Rabbit Island) Reserve and brought to us to be attached.
We then had to work quickly to attach the seaweed to the blocks so that it could be redistributed closer to Mauao.
Keith is interested in the effects of urbanisation on marine life in our area. They will monitor the samples to see if any changes are happening once transplanted from a reserve to a more urban area.
