Description
Caption: Scanned pressings of brown seaweeds: natural historical specimens as natural works of art Participant category: Postdoctoral researcher/fellow Department: Scripps Institution of Oceanography Scientists use macroalgal herbarium collections (i.e., seaweed pressings) to preserve and catalog specimens. This is useful for tracking biodiversity across space and time— not to mention, they are natural works of art! This image depicts pressings of brown macroalgae scanned as part of the Smith Lab’s efforts to reestablish an herbarium collection at Scripps Oceanography.
