LIMPETS: Long-term Monitoring Program and Experiential Training for Students

Acknowledgements

The LiMPETS network is a collaborative program with many committed partners and contributors. We are grateful to have such a dedicated LiMPETS team that continually connects teachers and students with the ocean. Special thanks to Dr. John Pearse, Dawn Osborn and Christy Roe for bringing their expertise and a Sea Grant funded Rocky Intertidal Monitoring Program, website and database to LiMPETS. Additional thanks to Dr. Jennifer Saltzman and the Farallones Marine Sanctuary Association for their contribution of the Sandy Beach Monitoring Program, website and database. It is not often we find people so willing to “give” their resources away.

A big thank you to our talented website design and development team, Annabelle Ison, Brent Williams, and Dan Mahoney, who donated extra time and effort to recreate this website and to the Marin Community Foundation for funding the redesign of this website.

“This is one of the best things I could ever do to enhance science education and conservation of our spectacular coastline. Working with teachers and their students is a wonderful and fulfilling experience.”
