Ripple Effects: The Far-Reaching Impacts of Local Ocean Research

The diversity of life in Monterey Bay has attracted an unparalleled cluster of world-class research institutions making our region a hotspot for both wildlife and ocean science. Join Cal State Monterey to learn about some of the ground-breaking work the research community is doing using incredible tools such as undersea robots and electronic satellite tags. They're unraveling mysteries about great white sharks, the northward invasion of Humboldt squid and new species living on the slopes of little explored seamounts. Their work is having an impact far beyond Monterey Bay, helping inform science and managment policy both nationally and internationally. 

This is a free event that will be held in the University Center in Seaside on April 9th. For a full program of events, which begin at 9am, visit http://montereybay.noaa.gov.
