| Title: | Scanned slides from surveys of beach profiles and animals conducted by the Beach Watch program, 1993 (NODC Accession 0002428) |
| Abstract: | The NOAA Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary (GFNMS) Beach Watch Program, administered by the Farallones Marine Sanctuary Association, is a long-term monitoring program operating within the GFNMS and the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary (MBNMS). An objective of the program is to develop baseline information on the organisms inhabiting the Sanctuary and on the physical characteristics of the Sanctuary. To achieve this objective, photographic slides of animals (both alive and dead) and beach profiles have been taken during surveys of fifty-five beaches every two to four weeks since 1993 (approximately 8,500 surveys). This accession contains data from 1993. |
