OWENS BEACH, Tacoma, WA
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28th
Details to be announced
Janna Nichols (the other half of Pacific NW Scuba) is an amazing Fish and Invertebrate ID instructor. As such, she started a Pacific NW Critter Watchers group in conjunction with her REEF surveying work. Pacific NW Critter Watchers group's mission is to: Put Fun into Critter Watching and Promote Critter Surveying in the PNW. They also conduct quarterly survey dive days and I thought it might be a great opportunity for Single Divers to join forces on their next dive day!
If you have never gone fish surveying before, you can learn more starting with Janna's Quick Start REEF Surveying Guide.
So why join a REEF Survey Dive Day?
Improve your ID skills by being able to discuss what you've seen with more experienced folks
Contribute to REEF's data collection by:
- obtaining a strong sample from individual sites
- focusing efforts on particular sites of interest
- defining the minimum number of surveys for the data to be really useful and the number of surveys at which the statistics stabilize
So just how good are your PNW ID skills?
