YOU can be a muddy marine scientist!
RSVP requested by May 1st.
The Puget Sound Restoration Fund has been working with the Washington Department of Natural Resources, who owns tidelands in Liberty Bay near Poulsbo, and many other partners (EPA, US Navy, Tribes) to enhance native Olympia oyster stocks on tidelands in little known Dogfish Bay. They monitor their enhancement projects with seasonal surveys to check on their progress.
This survey will be looking for juvenile native oysters that recruited to a 2007 habitat enhancement project. Come out and do some marine science in the mud with us!
No special expertise required, just a keen eye. You'll meet at the Poulsbo Marina parking lot at 9am and take a short boat ride across to Dogfish Bay.
PLEASE NOTE: This is hands and knees on the beach. Lots of oyster shell and muddy sand.
