Would be good for community education purposes, may be good to inform certain management options (e.g., beach/ access closures), but the data may not be useful specifically for academic research (e.g., publications). ]]> 2020-10-29 20:34:10 UTC https://padlet.com/gtmresearchreserve/9hhqore7secxwyvo/wish/874842916 danielleboudreau https://padlet.com/gtmresearchreserve/9hhqore7secxwyvo/wish/874849855 need to ensure there's a champion to keep the program going ]]> 2020-10-29 20:36:56 UTC https://padlet.com/gtmresearchreserve/9hhqore7secxwyvo/wish/874849855
