After Prof. Senn attended constantly to the plankton with its field courses during the last years, also the students from Basel with Mr. Dr. Erhardt, which were staying in Tarifa for a week, got the opportunity to have a look at this hidden, miniscule organisms with their microscopes.

You can see on the pictures how one of our biologists lifts the catch with a special plankton net.
