BIOL 140 Study Guide - Introduced Species, Tide Pool, Wreck Beach
Document Summary
This is intended as a review of the intertidal field study at tower beach. Use this with your lab manual to refresh your memory of the field trip. No answers to the questions posed will be provided. If you missed the field trip consult with classmates to find out what was observed on that trip. We met at gate 3 above beach trail 3. Pre-lab assignments were collected and we proceeded down the trail. At the base of the path the trail opened onto the beach, named tower beach because of the presence of two towers built during world war ii. The upper part of the beach is naturally rocky (fig. 3) although some small round rocks (cobbles) have been brought in to reduce the effect of erosion (fig. Students examined the organisms on the beach and completed tables m-4, -5, and -6.
