Public Engagement in Ocean Science
At Ocean Science Analytics, we believe that involving the public in ocean science leads to deeper understanding, stronger stewardship, and more sustainable outcomes. Whether through education, citizen science, or community-based monitoring, public participation enhances data collection, sparks innovation, and builds advocacy for marine conservation. By connecting people to the science behind our oceans, we help bridge knowledge and actionā€”empowering individuals to play an active role in protecting marine ecosystems.

MPA Observer Program
Developed during our 2023 Apprenticeship program, the MPA Observer Program - La Jolla North provides a resource for documenting marine life and associated human use of a local biological hotspot. Data are collected by local divers, kayak guides and surfers whose contributions are automatically incorporated in data summarization and analysis within the eOceans platform.
