SUMMARY:Marine Invasive Species Survey - Salem
DESCRIPTION:Join us to monitor marine invasive species! These creatures have been introduced to new locations by human activities and have damaging impacts to our local waters. Salem Sound Coastwatch has monitored marine invasive species at docks\, in tidepools\, and along the rocky shore every summer for the past 20 years with the help of community science volunteers. We are on the lookout for a variety of invasive crustaceans\, tunicates\, and seaweeds\, among others! As a founding member of the Marine Invader Monitoring and Information Collaborative (MIMIC)\, we share the data our volunteers collect with the MA Office of Coastal Zone Management\, who keeps track of the abundance of marine invaders along the North Atlantic coast.   \n\n\n\nNo experience necessary; SSCW staff will help you identify the species we’re on the lookout for. We recommend wearing sturdy shoes that can get wet. \n\n\n\nRSVP is required. Email info@salemsound.org or call (978) 741-7900 to reserve your spot. \n\n\n\nPlease let the Winter Island gatehouse staff know you’re with Salem Sound Coastwatch to waive the parking fee. Meet by the rain garden/kayak rack.
