SUMMARY:Underwater in Salem Sound Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Drifters — Ocean Currents in the Gulf of Maine and STEM Education \n\n\n\n** This is a hybrid program which can be attended in person OR online via Zoom. \n\n\n\nIn Person Registration  HERE \n\n\n\nOnline Zoom Registration HERE \n\n\n\nPresentation Description: This past winter and spring\, Salem Sound Coastwatch’s School to Sea program led a Drifter Program with local students in the Salem Sound community with the help of an awarded MIT Sea Grant. The drifters are low cost and student-build devices that track currents via satellite telemetry. While giving real-time data on currents in the Gulf of Maine that contributes to NOAA’s Integrated Ocean Observing System and validates numerical models\, students are also able to collect and analyze the data for their own education purposes. This program has been running since 2004 and was founded by the Gulf of Maine Lobster Foundation\, the Southern Maine Community College (SMCC)\, and NOAA’s Northeast Fisheries Science Center and since then\, more than 1\,500 different drifters have been deployed by about 100 schools!  \n\n\n\nSpeaker Bio: Alex Borreil is an Educator for the School to Sea program for Salem Sound Coastwatch and holds a B.A. in Environmental Studies from Hobart and William Smith Colleges. In addition to being an educator\, she was also the Principal Investigator for the drifter program. Previous to coming to Salem\, Alex spent a collective six years leading and creating field and classroom-based marine science courses and research projects for students in the Caribbean and Florida Keys. As a New England Native\, her goal is to inspire young scientists to continue learning and protecting their local coastlines through hands-on educational experiences.   \n\n\n\nFor the past fourteen years\, Underwater in Salem Sound has been jointly sponsored by Salem Sound Coastwatch and Abbot Public Library. All the lectures are free and open to the public. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Water Quality Monitoring - Training Session
DESCRIPTION:Help protect the health of Salem Sound this summer by joining our water quality monitoring program. Volunteers collect water samples from local streams and stormwater outfalls to identify sources of pollution before they reach our beaches. \n\n\n\nFor over three decades\, Salem Sound Coastwatch has partnered with local communities to track bacteria pollution and improve water quality. Your participation supports cleaner beaches\, safer swimming\, and healthier coastal ecosystems. \n\n\n\nVolunteers sample every two weeks from June through August\, with all samples analyzed for Enterococcus\, a key indicator of potential public health risk in marine waters. \n\n\n\nInterested in being a water quality tester this summer? Then join our training program on May 27th or 28th! No experience needed\, just a willingness to get involved. \n\n\n\nRegistration required: email Susan Marsh at susan.marsh@salemsound.org and indicate which day you plan to attend.
