Dan Hawkins joined the lab and will be working at Sapelo Island this summer along with Rebecca Atkins.  Dan is working towards his MS in Ecology and is developing a thesis on marsh ecology — his work will complement the research being done by Rebecca as part of her dissertation.  Dan graduated from Creighton University (you can tell by the t-shirt!) and has previously conducted research at Sapelo as an intern with the Georgia Coastal Ecosystem LTER program.
