In the Field High School Monitoring (9-12)
High school students can help the Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary by monitoring coastal habitats.
High school students get the opportunity to gain field experience and collect data that will be used by scientists and others to assess the health of our coastal communities.
o The sandy beach monitoring project is a long-term, baseline study to assess changes in the sandy beach environment that might affect the coastal birds that depend on this environment.
o The rocky intertidal monitoring project brings students from the classroom to the beautiful and diverse tidepools where students identify and count the organisms living along a transect.
These projects include field support, handbooks, classroom and field kits for checkout and online database for student results.
