Summer Lecture Series Whale Museum

This lecture will be held at the Whale Museum at 6:30 p.m. as part of the Summer Lecture Series. Come learn about the work the ECHO Program managers and collaborators are undertaking, including increasing awareness about the impacts of underwater noise on marine mammals, measuring vessel noise levels, monitoring regional ambient noise in the Salish Sea, long term goals, how the Salish Sea will benefit from this research, and more. Friday Harbor-based researcher Dr. Jason Wood of SMRU Consulting will join Krista to describe how they are working together on a large scale research project to study the impacts of slowing vessels down through Haro Strait. The Summer Lecture Series is dedicated to providing our local community and visiting public with knowledge and wonder of the natural world.  The lectures are given by local or visiting experts in their field.  Join us as they share their recent research projects, stories, and experiences. Each lecture is free and held at The Whale Museum.  Donations are greatly appreciated.  For more information, call (360) 378-4710 ext.30.  The Whale Museum can be found on-line at www.whalemuseum.org.
