About the Event
Jellyfishes are mysterious creatures which are made of water. Around 95% of their body is water, but incredibly, they can still detect changes in temperature, salinity, pH and other chemistry in the water around them. They are also an important component of our ecosystems; many animals feed on them while some will live with them. Despite being such unique and important they are frequently overlooked by researchers and the public.
The museum has invited Mr. John Terenzini, the founder of Hong Kong Jellyfish Project, to share about the vital contributions jellyfish make to marine ecosystems, as well as the economic, medical, and cultural importance jellyfish have to humans.
