Pathways to Marine Science: Bridging Research Opportunities at Bodega Marine Laboratory for Community College Students

PROJECT HIGHLIGHT

This project created a new program, Pathways to Marine Science, that helps students majoring in marine science or related fields transition from community college to the University of California, Davis. The program offers a “bridge” for community college students, providing research experience and community building before their official matriculation at UC Davis.

2024-2027 Continued assessment of Rocky Intertidal habitats for the California Marine Protected Area Monitoring Program

In 2012, California finalized a plan for its system of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) — setting aside a network of sites where consumptive activities like fishing are limited or prohibited altogether to protect oceanic resources for future generations. To understand whether these MPAs are effectively protecting the ocean, they must be monitored.
