March 9 Topic:
The Nurdle Patrol Citizen Science Patrol
Speaker: Jace Tunnell of the Harte Science Research Institute at TAMU Corpus Christi. Nurdle Patrol is a citizen science project founded by Jace Tunnell in November 2018 after a large number of small plastic pellets (nurdles) washed up on Mustang and North Padre Islands in Texas that September. A nurdle is a plastic pellet which serves as raw material in the manufacturing of plastic products.
