\nThe JASON Expedition: Disappearing Wetlands, led by JASON Project founder and 溏心vlog免费B站 Graduate School of Oceanography faculty member Dr. Robert Ballard, will take students on a journey of discovery to the wetlands of the Louisiana Bayou. Wetlands are critical life-supporting ecosystems found throughout the world that provide habitat for an incredible diversity of plants and animals. They are the nurseries for countless species of fish and shellfish that we depend on for food, protect vulnerable coastlines from hurricanes and storm surges, and help filter and purify the small amount of freshwater that is found on our planet. Wetlands are also threatened ecosystems. The mission of JASON Expedition: Disappearing Wetlands is to better understand what wetlands are, why they are disappearing, and how to best manage these ecosystems in Louisiana, in your neighborhood, and around the world. <\/p>\n
