Join us on March 21 at 7:00 pm for an Island Lecture Series presentation by marine ecologist Dr. Iren茅 Novaczek on the ecosystem restoration project at Basin Head. Basin Head was designated as a under the Oceans Act in 2005, to conserve and protect a unique strain of Irish moss (Chondrus crispus) which is thought to exist only within the confines of Basin Head.
The talk will focus on adaptive management of the marine protected area to ensure that the unique giant form of Irish moss at Basin Head is able to survive in the coastal lagoon environment, which is challenged by the impact of local agriculture, invasive European green crabs, and ongoing climate changes.
