During the past two weeks we have continued to see a variety of phytoplankton species present in Kachemak Bay. Although Seldovia and Homer Harbors have had few phytoplankton other sampling sites continue the trend from late September with abundant phytoplankton samples composed of a wide variety of species. We will continue to monitor phytoplankton in Kachemak Bay so long as weather conditions allow us to collect them safely.
