The research conducted here was a part of an upper level biology course (Biol 201: Ecology of Atlantic Shores) at Clark University, Worcester, MA. I would like to acknowledge both of the professors of the course, Dr. Todd Livdahl and Dr. Deborah Robertson.

This was a great learning experience, both in the classroom and outside of it; my classmates and I have been able to experience the challenges and successes of conducting one’s own field research. I would like to thank my classmates for a great semester and a fun time getting to know each of them.

This course will be looked back on with fond memories of our trip to Bermuda, Nahant’s intertidal, and endless data analysis.

For, even if the memories should fade, I will always have the scars of my moped accidents in Bermuda.
