Marine Life Observatory
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- The mission of Hopkins Marine Station’s Marine Life Observatory (MLO) is to generate and make available consistent long-term data, building the necessary foundation for establishing a scientific baseline on which to evaluate the ecological health of the local marine ecosystem. The MLO supports research on the nearshore and intertidal zones surrounding the Marine Station. The primary research goals are (1) the capture, analysis, and continuation of long-term data sets begun up to a century ago, and (2) new initiatives aimed at consistent monitoring and evaluation of diversity and abundance – from microbes to large animals – along with quantification of important ecological processes.
