Jacob+Antartica+Science+Cafe

On March 2nd 2018, I attended a lecture by Alex Dornburg, who is the research curator of Ichthyology at the NC museum of Natural Science. He first started his talk by playing a game of bingo with everyone and teaching them basic knowledge. He then talked about his research in Antartica and the ecosystems there. He also talked a lot about climate change and how that could affect food webs and ecosystems in Antartica. One effect he discussed was how fishes might migrate to other areas due to climate change because the warmer climates are harmful. This lecture relates to environmental science because we studied global warming, and much of this talk was about how global warming was effecting the Antarctic ecosystems, we also studied food webs and ecosystems, which Dornburg talked about as well.
