The Catalina Marine Society is a nascent organization arising to study and understand the marine environment of Santa Catalina Island and the entire Southern California Bight in which she lies. The goals of the Society are to promote, facilitate and distribute studies and insights into the physical and biological dynamics that both comprise its marine environment or that otherwise affect the underwater regions.
The Society’s activities may include but are not limited to: organizing and conducting scientific meetings and workshops; sponsoring experiments and data collections; providing analytical support to researchers, sponsoring presentations to professional societies; and, organizing and publishing marine studies. These endeavors are to be accomplished through the marshalling of resources contributed by volunteer researchers and supporting members.
