jacky jumbou - phytoplankton lab day on anasazi girl

Phytoplankton lab day on board Anasazi Girl: French biologist Jacky Jumbou teaches Tormentina and Raivo how to collect seawater from Seno Lauta, pour it through an 80µ filter, drop samples onto a slide, and how to use a microscope to view the plankton.

It is often a cacophony of German, Russian, French, Spanish, and English on the big raft yacht club we call the Micalvi. No language barriers here as Tormentina came away from her "French" science class telling me that the phytoplankton is very important because it gives us our oxygen to breathe.
