From January to the end of March, André, Gabriel and I worked quite a lot to obtain mangrove samples across > 2000 km of coastline. Our plane/car/boat trips were not always smooth. We drove > 4000 km to get to the sampling sites, stayed away from home for more than 40 days, and faced many challenges like heavy rain, insatiable mosquitos, and sites that were hard to access. The effort will pay off!
Thanks Gabriel and André for the sharing so many experiences. Our mangrove expedition has ended successfully! We will continue to work smart (and hard) to best explore what we obtained during this journey.
