H 2 O Sampling before I could spell…. Water sampling – included animals Led to purchase of microscope Sampling of streams in high school Sampling of creeks for benthics and chemistry in college Went underground in graduate school Tried to follow the money after graduate school Went to non-profits in 2003

ESIP & Gulf of Maine ESIP itself formed in 2006

ESIP Itself Steering Committee & Program Manager Climate Change Eutrophication Fisheries Contaminants Coastal Development Aquatic Habitats Aquaculture

Gulf of Maine

Where does GRTA fit in? Input into Eutrophication Fact Sheet GRTA and other citizen group datasets were used in eutrophication fact sheet. Including: Salem Sound Coast Watch and Friends of Casco Bay

Where did GRTA information go? Indicator Reporting Tool www2.gulfofmaine.org/esip/reporting

Not impressed? Precipitation, aquaculture, dissolved oxygen, mussel tissue, contamination, shellfish bed closure, lobster settlement, sea level, point sources…..

Back to citizen science Continue to be a pillar of long term monitoring Problems in funding long term monitoring Local knowledge/passion for specific places

ESIP and next step “You see, I see” app Proposal crafted for mobile app Utilizes sentinel sites and “user’s choice sites” Collects images and user information Real-time information about beach erosion, seasonal responses, etc.
