EstuaryLive! May 1st & 15th

On May 1st, join naturalists from around the country explore one of our nation’s most precious resources- estuaries, where rivers meet the sea. EstuaryLive is an annual, free, live, interactive, field trip through our nation’s estuaries. What makes EstuaryLive interactive?

Participants have an opportunity to submit questions directly to field trip leaders during the broadcast. Many of these questions are answered live during the broadcast.

This year’s program will feature six 30-minute segments broadcasting live from the Hudson River in New York, South Slough in Oregon, and Padilla Bay in Washington. This year’s program will include a discussion of the impacts of global climate change on our coastal ecosystems.

Educational materials are available to help you prepare for your estuarine adventure. Explore Estuaries 101; educational tools designed to help you integrate estuarine concepts into your curriculum.

Can’t make the May 1st broadcast? The Weeks Bay Reserve in Alabama will broadcast a local EstuaryLive program on May 15th.
