Most of the fish and shellfish eaten in the US spend some or all of their life in estuaries. @NOAAHabitat’s work restoring estuaries helps protect these species—and the jobs and communities they support. #iheartestuaries

Each spring, our staff and volunteers venture into local creeks to collect data about habitat health. They also monitor for aquatic bugs that act as bio-indicators, telling us how clean the waters are. See the results from our 2019 survey in our blog! https://t.co/L0OfjYCvrF

Will you join us? We're working to free our beaches, trails, parks, and other public spaces from trash! Just bring a bag or your next adventure and scoop up litter along the way.
The bay thanks you! Tag us in your pickup pictures and we'll retweet. #2minutebeachclean

It was a pleasure talking with @MonicaLVaughan and @DavidMiddlecamp of the @SLOTribune about Morro Bay's salt marsh and the threat it faces from sea level rise. Thank you for sharing the story of this rare and essential natural habitat!

[Monica Vaughan @MonicaLVaughan]

Today I’m out in the field reporting on sea level rise. Some models project 2 meter rise by 2100, which would cover this salt marsh in Morro Bay. Touring with @MorroBayNEP. Story soon w/ better photos from @DavidMiddlecamp

#Monarchs are back on the CA Coast, but there are fewer of them than ever. Why the decline? Find out & see how you can help during the Thanksgiving Count. Now to 12-8. https://t.co/DbEIt7q8xR Pic by Dagmar Collins via Flickr https://t.co/9O0RKZKFj2. CC 2.0 https://t.co/vWiMsisWjb

@MikeKOReilly @PGE_John @SLOTribune Wow! Impressive hiking record and a great question, @MikeKOReilley! Can anyone in our part of the twitterverse explain how those decisions are made? #geographyteacher #surveys @calacademy @CAStateParks @USGSLandsat #Geology #SeaLevelRise @500womensci @CalPolyAlumni @CalPoly_CFS

[Morro Bay NEP @MorroBayNEP]

Ever wonder what those metal survey markers are at the top of Black Hill and other local peaks? See how scientists are using them to track sea level rise @PGE_John's latest article for @SLOTribune. https://t.co/WAy8AzdZGQ #sealevelrise

Stop by the #CalPoly pier this Saturday between 9AM & 2PM to see marine life up close, learn about new research, and enjoy interactive displays. #handsonlearning #marinescience #research https://t.co/TYrk0Fr6pe

Thanks @SLOCountyPWD for this reminder about the hazards of stormwater runoff! When you park at work or home, make it a habit to pick up any trash you see in the gutter or a nearby storm drain, and bring it to a trashcan. It'll take 30 seconds and make the #firstflush cleaner!

[County of SLO Public Works @SLOCountyPWD]

Did you know the first rain of the season creates some of the most polluted stormwater runoff? Pollutants accumulate during the dry season and create runoff called the #FirstFlush of #Stormwater. We'll be posting more tips on how you can help prevent stormwater pollution!
