In this episode, we interview Ezra Kottler, a PhD student at George Washington University who studies how plants in salt marshes are adapting to changing coastal conditions such as sea level rise. Learn about salt marshes and the benefits they provide to coastal communities, and about the struggles of setting up an experimental design during the COVID-19 pandemic. Spoiler alert: bored raccoons = bad news for researchers!
