SOS Jersey are to help and work with Environmental Science students from Brittany with their coastline studies, including sea lettuce research.
Jacqui Carrel, SOS Jersey’s Environmental Scientist, met with Tomas Hull, Head of International Relations at EME near Rennes, and Sid Brown, Principal of St Brélade’s College, to discuss how French students and interested parties in Jersey can collect and share data and findings on the sea lettuce problems in St Aubin’s Bay and Brittany.
She says, ‘We are looking forward to building links with EME students and working long-term with them not only on sea lettuce-related matters, but on many aspects of our shoreline.’
The students are also in Jersey to learn English, so will be based at St Brélade’s college, which is well situated for studying St Aubin’s Bay, and work with SOS Jersey will be conducted in English.
