Undergraduate student of Marine Biology, Miss Gabriela Kanamori, is now analysing the zooplankton samples collected at El Quisco Bay, central Chile, by the project FONDECYT 1150296, looking for meroplankton, particularly cirripede nauplii and cypris larvae, as well as gasteropod larvae.

Hasta el momento, Gabriela ha finalizado la separación, conteo y estandarización de datos de las campañas septiembre 2015 - febrero 2016, y actualmente está analizando las muestras septiembre 2016 - febrero 2017. Luego, comparará las condiciones ambientales imperantes en la zona (temperatura del mar a 4 profundidades, viento, nivel del mar) con las abundancias larvales.
Until now Gabriela has finished the separation, counting and standardizing of then data from the samplings carrried out during September 2015 - February 2016, and currently, she is analysing the samples from Sept 2016 - Feb 2017. Thereafter, she will compare the larval abundance with the environmental conditions (seawater temperature at 4 depths, winds, sea level).
