The next generation of ZEN!
We are excited to announce that the Zostera Experimental Network has been funded by a Biological Oceanography grant at the National Science Foundation through summer 2016. In the next generation of the ZEN program we are expanding from 15 to over 50 sites worldwide in our quest to understand the role of biodiversity and the environment on the functioning of coastal ecosystems.
