06/17/2011-Today I woke up at 3:30am to meet with the crew at the East Hills Library to head to Kansas City International Airport. When we got to the airport I had to check in all by myself. It was kind of confusing considering my mom has always done it for me. I flew from Kansas City, Missouri to Orlando, Florida. It took about 3 hours to arrive there. From Orlando we flew to Fort Lauderdale. I am spending the night here and tomorrow we will be flying to Andros at 5am. The first flight of…Continue

In the space below, we'll continue to reflect upon our reading of "The Enchanted Braid: Coming to Terms with Nature on the Coral Reef," by Osha Gray Davidson:Personally, I really enjoy the transitioning of the book at around the fifth chapter. The way I see it, the first section of the book is the "what for" section. In essence, the chapter that builds the background knowledge of the reader to the point that…Continue

In the space below, we'll continue to reflect upon our reading of "The Enchanted Braid: Coming to Terms with Nature on the Coral Reef," by Osha Gray Davidson:After several face to face sessions in the classroom relating to both the physiology and classification of corals and the origins of the structure of coral reefs, a reading of Darwin in Paradise and The Rise of Corals comes at a perfect time. A close reading of these two chapters should allow us to come to a deeper understanding of many…Continue

Welcome to another look into the world of Osha Gray Davidson's "The Enchanted Braid: Coming to Terms with Nature on the Coral Reef." Pay particular attention to the final questions to ponder in the prompt below when preparing your response...Chapter Two, entitled: Animal, Mineral, Vegetable is a deeper dive down into the magic of the reef. To get to that point, it makes sense to truly understand the nature of the coral polyp itself. The unique nature of these little beasts is what allows the…Continue

Be text-based in your responses and provide ample detail to back up your claim.Continue

Colt's recent update on his life has inspired me to also update everyone on my shenanigans. I am not living in the beautiful wilderness of Alaska, but I am living in the concrete jungle of Washington D.C.
So, since I last checked in, I finished my dissertation research at the University of Rhode Island and am in the process of publishing my results. If all goes as planned, I will be Dr. Nicole Rohr in May with a Ph.D. in Biology! Here is my first chapter in case you are…
