May 2024: Sugarloaf Island Restoration Project Update

The Sugarloaf Island Restoration Project has successfully placed Wave Attenuation Devices (WADs) on the western shores and is now moving east. Below are images from our Spring 2024 drone mapping campaign. We’re excited to have undergraduate student Delanie Ipock join us in the field for the first time. Welcome to the lab, Delanie!
