The Pacific Nearshore Ecosystem Mysteries & Sea Otter Awareness Week

• Nearshore marine ecosystems face unprecedented challenges, regionally and globally, with threats from adjacent lands and oceans
• Sea otter populations are experiencing reduced rates of increase across much of their range
• Scientists are evaluating the status of north Pacific nearshore ecosystems from southern CA to southwest Alaska looking for clues about processes influencing the sea otter and the nearshore
• New technology is being used to study nearshore food webs, define the effects of adjacent watersheds, and demystify sea otter behaviors
