SUMMARY:Nearshore Ecology Program Annual Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Save the date for the first Nearshore Ecology Program Annual Meeting! The agenda is available here. Participants can expect to learn about the new ODFW Nearshore Ecology Program\, work of the Marine Reserves & Marine Habitat Teams\, and research and conservation efforts in Oregon’s marine reserves & nearshore environments. Dive deeper into the stories showcased in the Nearshore Ecology Program’s 2025 Year in Review. The meeting will be held at the Carmen Ford Phillips Auditorium in the Gladys Valley Marine Studies Building (2030 SE Marine Science Dr\, Newport\, OR) followed by a networking reception. While in person attendance is preferred\, there will also be a remote viewing option via Teams. Register here. \nAbout the Nearshore Ecology Program\nIn 2025\, ODFW’s Marine Resources Program reorganized the Oregon Marine Reserves Program and Marine Habitat Project into one program. The creation of the new Nearshore Ecology Program culminates a vision to bring efforts focused on marine conservation and nearshore habitat research under one roof. The Nearshore Ecology Program aims to strengthen collaborations\, techniques\, and teamwork around two groups historically focused on marine conservation science.

DESCRIPTION:Want to contribute to marine conservation\, but don’t know where to start? Take part in a scavenger hunt for science! Starting on Worldwide Marine Protected Areas Day on August 1st\, we invite you to participate in a BioBlitz across Oregon’s five marine reserves and marine protected areas. From the rugged cliffs of Cape Falcon in the north to the dramatic islands of Redfish Rocks in the south\, Oregon’s five marine reserves are areas dedicated to conservation and scientific research.

SUMMARY:Tabling at Redfish Music Festival
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate Marine Protected Areas Day by enjoying classical music with a view of the Redfish Rocks Marine Reserve! The ODFW Marine Reserves team will provide some opening remarks at the Redfish Music Festival’s August 1st performance (more details available here). We will also be tabling with resources and information about Oregon’s marine reserves. \nAbout the Redfish Music Festival \nFounded in 2021\, the Redfish Music Festival is named after the Redfish Rocks Marine Reserve located off the south Oregon coast between Rocky Point and Coal Point\, just south of the town of Port Orford. This site is Oregon’s only marine reserve located south of Cape Blanco. Cape Blanco is a known biogeographic break — where the north-south extent of some species begin or end — within the California Current System. The Redfish Rocks Reserve is a one-of-a-kind\, and that describes our music festival very well. It is precious and worth protecting and preserving.
