Watch our classroom on Bull and Giant kelp with Marine Biologist, Grace Dalton. https://www.youtube.com/live/mgWWPpCweUI?is=_lN0Y-6IMNikNe5E Kelp forests are among Earth’s most dynamic and productive marine ecosystems, created by giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) and bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana). They are also integral to the marine carbon cycle, boasting primary production rates comparable to those of tropical rainforests. Beyond their ecological importance, kelp forests hold cultural significance for Indigenous communities along the Pacific coast and contribute to commercial industries and scientific research. #uvic #victoria #oneislandoneocean #expedition
