California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigations: Understanding California’s fisheries from Cannery Row to offshore wind energy development
The ocean off the California coast supports a complex ecosystem that sustains abundant marine life and economically important California fisheries. Yet, changing climate and increasing human impacts are altering this fragile environment and its ability to provide us with a wealth of essential services.
Join us for an engaging discussion with Scripps alumna Dr. Noelle Bowlin, NOAA director of CalCOFI, to discover how researchers from NOAA, Scripps Oceanography and California Fish & Wildlife have been monitoring the indicators and impacts of climate change off the California coast since 1949, and are supporting effective management of this precious natural resource.
