Shoals Marine Lab Lease Extended

 

Lease Allows Cornell Program to Continue for Another 25 Years

 

The educational program has operated on the island since 1972 under the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. The Shoals Marine Laboratory offers a unique opportunity for students to experience marine science. Located on 95-acre (38.44 hectare) Appledore Island, Isles of Shoals in the Gulf of Maine, this near-pristine environment allows students to study many aspects of intertidal and sub-tidal ecology.
