Santa Cruz Island Reserve

17 Jan, 04 AM - 24 Jan, 04 AM

Our project entails conducting intertidal biodiversity surveys along the West Coast of the US. We have sites from San Diego to the northern shores of Washington, and three of our sites are on Santa Cruz Island. They are located on and near Frasier Point. Our research requires us to visit these sites annually. Our research is not manipulative in the intertidal. We do no experiments and no collecting of plants or animals. Our work each day involves locating our site, measuring tidal and elevation heights, and counting the algae and invertebrates found on the intertidal rocks using a quadrat. The impact we have on the environment is only from us being present there. We do need housing on the island, being that we need to work for three days in the field.
