Participants will camp and some indoor sleeping accomodations are desired for the instructor and for some of the older participants. A description follows: "This weekend workshop will introduce participants to seaweeds of central California, collected from Big Sur to Bodega Bay. Instruction will be given in keying and in the preparation of herbarium specimens. Topics of discussion will include the history of our knowledge of California seaweeds (focusing on central California), how they have performed on the mainland in the face of pollution, and the role of the San Francisco and Monterey bays in the biogeographic distribution of seaweeds. The text will be "Marine Algae of California" (Abbott and Hollenberg, 1976. Stanford University Press). An introductory lecture will be given Friday evening. Field trips early Saturday and Sunday mornings will provide fresh material for examination during each day."
