The scientific team took the first samples of water between 0.5 and 8 m deep. These studies examine a number of parameters, including water temperature, salinity and conductivity. The Gambian students were given the opportunity to learn how to take samples on board the sailboat.<\/p>\n<p>The analysis continues today with the collection of new data in the river and the first soil cores near the mangroves.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sail for the mangroves in Gambia&#8221; is a project run in partnership with the University of Geneva, the GREAT Institute Gambia &amp; Swansea University.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-2 fusion_builder_column_1_6 1_6 fusion-flex-column\"
