The Center’s Shorezone Fish & Blue Crab Survey has collected data on fish populations at 16 shoreline sites in the Inland Bays watershed since 2011. With more than 100 species of fish known to inhabit the Bays, data collected through this long-term survey can help scientists track changes in populations of the fish over time.
This year, all training sessions will be held in-person and virtually through Zoom. Registration information and the required volunteer waivers are available online at https://www.inlandbays.org/get-involved/volunteer/.
