Kitsap Audubon Society's October 2021 Virtual General Meeting with Dr. Julia Parrish

Hands-on citizen science offers an opportunity to collect environmental data over stretches of space and time that no research lab could hope to attain on its own. Join Dr. Julia Parrish as she presents about the Coastal Observation and Seabird Survey Team (COASST) - a 21-year-old environmental citizen science project that trains participants to identify what floats in on the tide. Dr. Parrish is the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs in the College of the Environment at the University of Washington, where she holds a Lowell A. and Frankie L. Wakefield Professorship in Ocean Fishery Sciences. She is a marine biologist, conservation biologist, and specialist in citizen science. She is also the Executive Director of the Coastal Observation and Seabird Survey Team.
