We have no special area set aside for visiting investigators, although we can usually accommodate you somewhere. The Marine Lab has a flow-through seawater system serving a large number of concrete and fiberglass holding tanks and glass aquaria. There are generally some available for use by visiting investigators. Equipment and Supplies Please inform your sponsor of any particular equipment or supplies you will need for your research. Some expendable supplies may be available on a cost-reimbursable basis.
Visitors are responsible for the disposal of chemical wastes generated.
Use of boats on weekends and evenings will require extra load time and will cost more. Marine Lab Technicians are responsible for the safety of the boats and passengers and will determine whether boat trips are permissible on any given day. However, you should be prepared to pay for boat use if you require it for your research. If you anticipate a continuing need for a vehicle, you should arrange to rent one from a commercial rental agency. The collection of many marine organisms is regulated on Guam, and some areas are closed to collecting.
