Comparing mud in inside and outside of Stamford Harbor

Westhill High school students compared benthic mud samples from inside and outside Stamford harbor. The sample inside the harbor had some polychetes (i.e. clam worms) in the sulfurous based mud. In the sample from outside the Stamford breakwater, the benthic grab pulled up slipper snails, small crabs and polychetes.  Science in action.
