Snapshot Cal Coast is a California statewide effort to document our coastal biodiversity and hold a series of BioBlitzes up and down the California Coast, focusing on intertidal zones in marine protected areas (MPAs). We will be working together with the MPA Collaborative Network and other partners to create a "snapshot" in time of where species are located along our coast.
The California Academy of Sciences and the Marine Protected Area Collaborative Network, with funding through the Sustaining California's Ocean program of the Resources Legacy Fund Foundation, are coordinating Snapshot Cal Coast 2017.
