Colloquia involve various types of student projects. Below is a list of
some of the projects that have been undertaken in recent semesters in
this colloquium. In some cases there may be a link to an abstract of the
project.

of a jetty adjacent to different bodies of water
- The effect of plastic litter on the density
of the polychaete worm Nereis virens
- The effects of a groin field on the phytoplankton
community
- Determination of growth of the Cocos nucifera
on the shore in a non-indigenous temperature zone
- Examination of the effects of driftwood on
the population of the sand flea Orchestia agilis
