In honor of #nationalestuariesweek (September 20-27), we recognize the value of California’s estuaries in filtering water, improving water quality, and supporting biodiversity.

A photo of Miranda Melen with the backdrop of a dried area of the estuary. The visual reads: Out in the Field - “As the WRMP California Sea Grant State Fellow with a background in invasive plant research and marsh restoration, I have been eager to get into the field – closer to the science that drives our understanding and stewardship of tidal wetlands.”
As we continue to celebrate #NationalEstuariesWeek, please take a moment to enjoy this first-person account of what it’s like to be out in the field supporting the WRMP as shared by Sea Grant State Fellow Miranda Melen:

Morro Bay otters and many other species depend on #eelgrass to support the food web in the bay. New research may help inform efforts to restore eelgrass beds after a recent decline.
