Student from William Knibb High School measures the salinity of the water in her quadrat using a refractometer.
William Knibb High School student uses a refractometer to record the salt content or salinity of water in her mangrove plot.
J.A.M.I.N. year 2 student from William Knibb High School familiarizes himself with using a clinometer, which is a tool used to help determine the height of trees.
Student from William Knibb High School takes the initiative to record data for his group.
As part of the year 2 J.A.M.I.N. program, students collect soil samples to determine the soil texture in their mangrove plot. They collect the soil using a soil corer like the one photographed.
William Knibb High School student shows off her soil sample before she labels and places it in her collection bag. Later she and her group will determine the contents.
A student from William Knibb High School carefully measures the trunk of a mangrove tree as part of the year 2 J.A.M.I.N. program.
J.A.M.I.N. participant from William Knibb High School stands by ready to record data that her group is collecting.
Director of Education, Amy Heemsoth finds evidence that there is some type of bug feasting on the mangrove leaves at the Falmouth Restoration site.
Fulvia Nugent proudly helps this group of students monitor their mangroves. This is the second year in a row that these students from William Knibb have partipated in the J.A.M.I.N. program.
J.A.M.I.N. participants from William Knibb High School gladly take a moment from collecting data to pose for a team photo.
William Knibb High School students dig a hole to collect water from their mangrove plot. The students will measure the salinity, dissolved oxygen, and pH of the water.
These ladies from William Knibb High School use a pipette to place a couple of drops of salt water on a refractometer so they can measure its salinity.
Collecting soil samples when the ground is hard and dry is a tough task; however, this student from William Knibb High School managed to collect a large sample.
Sometimes there are equipment failures in the field. This student from William Knibb High School realizes that her refractometer is not giving her a correct reading. The equipment needs to be recalibrated, but in the meantime the student borrows another refractometer.
Seville Heritage Park has partnered with the University of the West Indies and the Living Oceans Foundation to provide mangrove education to area high school students. This photo is of the great house at Seville Heritage Park, which serves as a museum. The Seville property consists of 300 acres of property that allows visitors to explore Jamaica's history and culture.
Here is the document with the location for each students' propagules in the plant flats.
In the J.A.M.I.N. year 1 program, students grown mangrove seedlings in the classroom from September until May. This year, due to Hurricane Matthew, we started in November, so the propagules are not as tall, but they are still growing tall.
The J.A.M.I.N. program is conducted using project-based learning. Typically, for eight months, students grow mangrove seedlings in the classroom in three different types of media: sand, mangrove mud, and pebbles. The students measure the growth of their propagules and then at the end they determine which media was the best type for mangrove seedlings to grow in.
The J.A.M.I.N. students mangrove seedlings look very healthy, especially the ones growing in mud. In the past, we have had trouble with boring bugs damaging the propagules.
