Plankton research. A scientist records data from a sample of plankton observed under a binocular microscope. Plankton are small organisms found in the sea or fresh water, including diatoms, protozoans, small crustaceans, and the eggs and larvae of larger animals. They are a crucial part of the marine food chain. Photographed at the ichthyology laboratory at the National Fisheries Research Institute in Casablanca, Morocco.
